OMG Architects

OMG Architects (Office of Matthew Green), now Evergreen Architects, is an architecture practice based in Ocean Grove on the Bellarine Peninsula, specialising in residential projects of varying scale as well as commercial and retail work. It mainly serves the Bellarine, Greater Geelong and Greater Melbourne, and takes on projects elsewhere in Victoria and interstate.

The practice offers a highly personalised service, prides itself on "actually listening to what our clients want", and focuses on minimising embodied environmental footprint and optimising low-energy design through high-performing construction. It also offers a portfolio of pre-designed, energy-efficient house plans, from 60-square-metre granny flats to larger family homes.

On Lunchbox, Altona Lightbox adds a light-filled rear addition to a 1950s home, connecting a growing family to the pool and backyard. Dearie Residence sensitively updates an unaltered 1953 mid-century modern house in Beaumaris, designed by Kevin Knight, for 21st-century living.
