Architectural design with
Soul and structure

About the founder

Madeline Kudibal Rasmussen

I am a designer with a background in architecture and many years of experience shaping personal, timeless homes and refined residential projects.

Matera Design was founded from a wish to unite the rational and the sensory – to create spaces where proportion, light, and material coexist in quiet harmony.

I believe in a form of luxury defined not by excess, but by calm, balance, and quality.
Each project is a translation of the person who will inhabit it – crafted with respect for the whole and an uncompromising attention to detail.

Design philosophy

Proportion

Buildings and spaces that evoke calm through balance.

Materials

Sensory surfaces &honest structures in natural, durable materials.

Identity

Design centeret around collective harmony and timeless elegance. 

About Matera

Matera Design creates timeless homes defined by soul, beauty, and balance.
Our work draws on classical proportions, refined detailing, and honest materials – reinterpreted for contemporary life with comfort and functionality at its core.

Each project is conceived with respect for its setting and an instinctive sense of harmony between light, material, and space.
The result is a home that feels quietly anchored in history yet entirely attuned to the present – refined, personal, and enduringly elegant.

We work as design consultants, delivering thoughtful design concepts and comprehensive project documentation.

During your build

At Matera Design, we offer design consultancy.
We develop the concept, sketches, and full project documentation – providing the foundation that your craftsmen build from.

We assist with:
• planning of bespoke design solutions
• coordination
• material selection and supplier dialogue

The construction itself is carried out by the craftsmen chosen by the client.
When a project requires planning permission, we collaborate with a trusted external architect who manages the entire approval process.
