Who We Are

Access Studio is an independent, Australian owned access consulting firm specialising in accessibility and Universal Design. With offices in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, we partner with project teams to support accessible, inclusive and practical outcomes across new developments, refurbishments and existing built environments.

Our work brings together specialist access knowledge, architectural understanding and project experience to help clients make informed decisions with confidence. We work with architects, building surveyors, developers, project managers, facility managers, operators and peak bodies, providing clear, responsive and project specific advice that supports both compliance and usability.

At the heart of our work is a simple purpose: to help create spaces that work better for the people who use them. Our team includes Accredited Access Consultants, Architects and specialist support staff who approach each project with care, collaboration and a practical understanding of design, construction and the everyday experience of the built environment.

Vision

Mission

To partner with industry organisations and professionals to embed accessibility and inclusion into projects, creating better outcomes for clients and the people they serve.

Our Values

At the heart of our work is a shared purpose: to improve the experience and use of the built environment for people of all abilities.

As accessibility consultants, we use our specialist knowledge to help clients understand and respond to the diverse needs of the people who use their spaces. We respect diversity and champion equity, inclusion and independence through practical, considered access advice.

Our Approach

Every project is different, so our advice is never one size fits all. We take the time to understand the project stage, approval pathway, design intent, site constraints and end user needs before recommending the most suitable access consulting pathway.

Our team works collaboratively with clients and project stakeholders to identify issues early, provide clear recommendations and support informed decision making. Whether we are reviewing drawings, preparing reports, attending site or developing performance solutions, our focus is on practical outcomes that balance accessibility, compliance, buildability and the broader project vision.

Our Difference

At every stage, our advice is shaped by the people who will ultimately access, navigate and experience the space.

We've worked with Access Studio on various projects and their expertise has been invaluable. In each case we have dealt with the team, they have been able to come up with a practical and efficient solution to some complex layouts.
