Michael Jirku, RAIA, BA Arch (hons), BA Env Des

I graduated from the University of Tasmania in 1998 with honours and have been working as an architect in Tasmania since then. I have been a registered practicing architect since 2005 and director of MJ Architecture since late 2007. In this time, I have obtained extensive experience on a broad range of project types ranging from small renovations, through to complex medical centres, museums and large hotels.

My particular interest is in providing modern and environmentally sustainable design solutions which reflect the character and qualities of the particular site.

I also provide my skills and expertise as a design and building technology tutor at the University of Tasmania, School of Architecture.
