Foreground Architecture

Formerly known as FMSA Architecture, in 2022 we relaunch as Foreground Architecture. With our new look website, and freshly opened CBD-fringe office on Wurundjeri Country, much has changed of late. What remains the same is our steadfast collegial spirit and attentive client service delivery. For almost half a century, our team has delivered socially progressive and commercially astute architecture for ever-changing community needs. Working collaboratively with clients and consultants nationwide, we pursue the idea that uplifting, activating spaces should be accessible to all. Schools should inspire curiosity, homes should support connection and capability, and justice facilities should unlock our most humane potential. Led by Directors Greg Anson and Riordan Gough, Foreground creates architecture that balances our company values of humanity, ideas, collaboration and economy. Principals Peter Sandow, Patrick Ong, and a team of highly experienced staff support our practice's reliable reputation for delivery in a diverse portfolio of projects. For people and planet to thrive, we design inclusive, responsible and transformative built solutions across education, justice, commercial and civic, residential, and seniors living sector projects.
