MMA - Matteo Malatesta Architecture is available for new projects

MMA is a Paris-based architecture and interior design practice founded in 2024 by architect Matteo Malatesta, following 14 years of experience working alongside renowned architects such as Massimiliano Fuksas, Jean-Michel Wilmotte and Dietmar Feichtinger.

From new-build projects to renovations, the practice works in France and internationally, on projects of varying scales and programmes, from initial design through to site supervision.

Its expertise covers residential projects, private homes, public facilities, cultural venues, hospitality and commercial spaces.

Matteo Malatesta’s career has been shaped by projects carried out in France, Italy, Georgia, Brazil and China. This international experience has enabled him to work across a wide range of architectural and cultural contexts and to develop a strong ability to adapt to the specific requirements of each project. His fluency in French, Italian, English and Portuguese also facilitates communication with clients and project owners from diverse backgrounds.

MMA continues the high standards and commitment that have guided this career, with a desire to design distinctive buildings and spaces that respond to each client’s needs and aspirations.

The practice’s approach is based on the belief that architecture and interior design should be conceived as one coherent whole. The design of volumes, light, circulation and uses is developed in dialogue with materials, interior layouts, textiles and finishes. This continuity makes it possible to approach the project as a whole, from its technical and construction aspects through to the finest details of the interior design.

With every project, the practice seeks to create contemporary architecture that tells a story and evokes emotion. Attention to proportions, light, materials and detail helps create vibrant, dynamic spaces that are deeply connected to the people who inhabit them.

In 2025, MMA won the Future House Residential Award, an international award presented by the Chicago Athenaeum and the European Centre for Architecture in Athens, for a single-family home project in Rueil-Malmaison.
