STUDIO M Architects & Interior Designers
Hi, I’m Monika - an architect and interior designer, and the founder of Studio M.
Studio M is an independent architecture and interior design practice I started in 2019. I personally lead every project, offering a hands-on, tailored experience from start to finish.
What truly sets Studio M apart is the trusted network of skilled professionals I’ve built over the years - builders, carpenters, landscape gardeners, painters, and decorators who I confidently recommend to my clients. Whether a project is large or small, this close-knit team helps ensure a smooth, high-quality process every step of the way.
At the heart of my work is a deep commitment to listening. I take the time to understand each client’s needs, timelines, budgets, and challenges - bringing in the right people early to avoid delays and establish a clear, achievable vision.
Studio M has grown entirely through word-of-mouth and long-standing collaborative relationships, built on trust, open communication, and consistently delivering results that exceed my clients expectations.
By involving the right team from the outset, I help minimise stress, avoid costly surprises, and ensure every detail is completed to the highest standard. Poor coordination can lead to unnecessary setbacks, which is why I carefully manage each stage with the right experts on board to keep things smooth, efficient, and successful.
Curious about what’s possible? I’d love to hear from you - get in touch and lets chat about what’s possible.
Monika Jociute Founding Director
Before founding Studio M, I have worked at leading architecture practices including Hawkins\Brown and Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands. My experience ranges from large-scale infrastructure projects—such as Crossrail’s Tottenham Court Road and Bond Street stations—to smaller residential and commercial developments.
Having led projects from concept through to on-site delivery, I bring extensive experience in managing complex teams, coordinating multiple stakeholders, and building strong client relationships—all of which shaped the foundation for launching Studio M and continue to guide its growth.
Alongside my practice, I remain deeply committed to education and currently serve as Course Director for the Architecture Apprenticeship programme at London South Bank University.
