What Matt Fajkus Architecture does

Matt Fajkus Architecture (MFA), operating as Matt Fajkus Architecture, LLC, is a privately held, founder-led architecture studio headquartered at 900 East 6th Street, Suite 100, Austin, Texas. Founded in 2010, the firm employs between 11 and 50 people and is licensed to provide both residential and commercial architecture and interior design services across Texas, with primary concentration in the Austin metropolitan area and selective projects in Wimberley, Marble Falls, Fort Worth, Bee Cave, and Lakeway.

MFA's core offering is project-based professional services covering the full architectural lifecycle — site analysis, schematic design, design development, construction documentation, and construction administration — applied to custom homes and renovations, commercial offices, healthcare facilities, wellness centers, specialty retail, and restaurants. The firm positions around sustainable and biophilic design principles, with a documented emphasis on natural light, material expression, and integration of indoor and outdoor environments. Notable completed work includes the 24,000 SF RigUp headquarters, the Descendant House multi-generational residence, the AIA National Healthcare Design Award-winning Westlake Dermatology Marble Falls facility, the Alive + Well Austin wellness center, and the Fashion[ing] Objects runway installation.

Revenue is generated entirely through fee-for-service project engagements, with quotes provided per engagement and no publicly disclosed pricing. The go-to-market is sales-led and reputation-driven: client acquisition flows primarily from the firm's award record (AIA National and Austin chapter, SARA NY and CA, BLT, Blueprint), press coverage in Arch Daily, Dezeen, Dwell, Architectural Record, and Wallpaper*, the firm's website portfolio, and a Mailchimp newsletter. The firm has no public API, no technology product, no disclosed investors or parent company, and operates with a repeat network of Texas-based contractors, engineers, photographers, and interior designers.
