DeMicoli & Associates

DeMicoli & Associates is an established firm of architects, engineers and interior designers based on the fifth floor of Spinola Terraces in St Julian's, the resort and business district on Malta's north-east coast. It has designed buildings in Malta and in a long list of other places, in countries across Europe and North Africa, in Moscow and in the United States.

UK investors, developers and homeowners looking at Malta will find the firm listed in our architects in Malta directory, where you can compare it with other practices before you make contact.

Services

The firm works in eight areas: architecture, structural engineering, civil engineering, interior design, project management, sustainability, property valuations and marine. Structural engineering deals with the frame that holds a building up, while civil engineering covers wider works such as groundworks and infrastructure. A property valuation is a professional assessment of what a building or site is worth, which matters when buying, financing or selling.

Bringing these disciplines together gives a client a single point of contact for a scheme that would otherwise need several appointments. If you are planning a move to the islands, our guide to relocating to Malta explains the wider process before you brief a designer.

Approach and range of work

Its portfolio takes in offices, homes, hotels and leisure venues, and the scale varies from major construction to modest restoration. The aim is to weigh looks against practical and financial realities, so that a building is pleasant to look at, works well day to day and stays affordable. Creative problem solving is part of that, which can matter on a cramped or sensitive site.

That mix suits the Maltese market, where a plot may be tight, the climate demands careful shading and ventilation, and historic surroundings call for tact. Our Malta weather guide shows how long and hot the season runs, which is a useful backdrop when you discuss orientation and cooling.

Projects across Malta

The projects page names a wide spread of schemes, among them The Quad, Spinola Terraces, Laguna, The Mall, Manouche, Ramla Bay Resort, Mosta Technopark, Fort St Elmo and Palm City. Together they cover offices, a business park, hospitality, leisure and residential work.

Some of them are in places visitors know well. Fort St Elmo stands at the tip of Valletta, so our Valletta guide and Knights of Malta guide give context for the site. Ramla Bay Resort is in the north, where our Mellieħa guide and hotels in Mellieħa pages help you plan a stay.

Who it suits

A firm with this range tends to suit developers and investors who need design, engineering and costs handled together, hotel and leisure operators, and private owners with a restoration in mind. Marine work and sustainability sit alongside the building disciplines, which may interest owners with waterside property or those who want an energy-conscious building.

When you write, say which of these applies, what stage you have reached (a plot you are considering, a purchase agreed or a building you already own) and when you would like to begin. That helps the team judge how it can help, and whether a valuation, an engineering opinion or a full design service comes first.

Visiting St Julian's and getting in touch

The office is at Spinola Terraces on Triq Mikiel Ang. Borg, St Julian's SPK 1000. St Julian's has plenty of places to stay, and our hotels in Sliema page covers the neighbouring coast, while things to do in Malta helps fill the rest of a trip.
