Services
As a multi-disciplinary design firm, we can help with all stages of your project, from initial planning and urban design, through to architecture, interior design and landscape services across a range of sectors including education, health, transport, residential, tourism, recreation and community.
Our architectural approach balances functionality and place, creating healthy buildings that are connected to Country.
Public space expresses a city’s cultural life. We consider relationships between people, place and stories to develop a nuanced and restorative urban approach that reconnects to nature.
We plan landscapes holistically, designing from Country and integrating with urban design and architecture disciplines to fluidly transform a site.
Our interiors team work hand in hand with our architecture and other disciplines in an integrated approach that supports the health and wellbeing of occupants.
Led by Wiradjuri architect and Managing Director, Craig Kerslake, we sensitively translate Indigenous knowledge, histories and culture into Country-centric design. As we are Indigenous architects, Indigenous themes are not lost in translation between Connecting with Country and Designing with Country as the two are meshed together.

Designing from Country
We apply our ‘Designing from Country’ Methodology’ to all projects. This ensures the correct stakeholders are engaged at the correct time, and the design is underpinned by a deep understanding of both the traditional stories of place and our client’s needs.
We explore these opportunities in tandem to unlock potential and add value for the project, while continually focused on the best outcome for our clients. Designing with Country continues throughout the development of the design, from concept through to detail and ultimately into construction and delivery. Nguluway Designinc will ensure the designing with Country is fundemental to the design and delivery of any project.
