Who is The Boutique Travel Architect?
I am Maisie, a British ex-pat living in Melbourne, Australia. I have been working as an architect for the last decade and you can see some of my work in the UK, Australia and Asia.

My favourite thing to do outside creating beautiful buildings is staying in them! I love to travel and have visited over 30 countries across 5 continents, staying in a variety of unique hostels, hotels, farm stays and even treehouses.

My style and budget have varied over the years, but my meticulous selection of stunning and original places has never waivered. I simply love discovering new places and my dream is to do the same for you. I believe that good accommodation can make or break a holiday and that a treasured travel memory is worth the time and effort spent researching.

As architects and designers, we spend years creating the perfect place for you to stay and I am here to find and share the best of them with as many people as I can.

What can you offer that other travel designers can't?
This is my passion project. It allows me to combine my two great loves: travel and architecture & design. I truly love seeing my clients' dream holiday/ travel adventures become a reality.

As an architect, I know how much time, effort and even tears go into designing and constructing the perfect hotel. It may take my team and I decade to bring one project to fruition, so in the meantime, I am dedicated to enlightening people to the incredible places which are already out there.

I will not send you to a generic hotel that you can find on any booking website, I will find the right accommodation to suit you.
