Paul Mak
Paul is an Australian Architect who was born in Hong Kong, raised in Melbourne, Australia, and now resides in Tokyo, Japan. His exposure to both Asian and Australian culture has led him on a path of discovery in design and architecture, using elements of both in his work. He was trained in Hong Kong, Melbourne and Tokyo for his architectural education and professional experience, and these experiences have grown deeply into his design philosophy.
Currently a registered architect in Australia, Paul demonstrates a strong commitment to sustainable and culturally responsive design on complex urban projects. He has also participated as a postgraduate research student at the University of Tokyo prior to his professional career.
Paul’s engagement with the architectural community extends beyond practice. His roles as an APE Part 3 examiner and volunteer reflect his dedication to mentoring, advocacy, and fostering international collaboration.
In 2025, Paul was awarded the Australian Institute of Architects International Chapter Emerging Architect Prize in recognition of his outstanding professional achievements, design excellence, and cross-cultural contributions to architecture.
