Founded in 1999 by Shea Murdock and Robert Young, the office Murdock Young presents very interesting works of architecture. Their residential projects show the harmony of the materials used and a balance in volume, reaching a great end result. Allied to this, the beauty and simplicity of the internal spaces, which can also be seen in their galleries, are important aspects in their works.

Prior to forming Murdock Young Architects, Shea Murdock Parker worked in offices in Germany and in New York, working with large-scale buildings. Robert Henry Young worked as intern in offices in Barcelona, Boston and New York, the offices of Mathias Thoenes and Keenen / Riley. Today, in their own office, each one leads a project at a time with the support of the other, where the leader is responsible for the design, documentation, construction and customer relationship, while the other is part of the project team.
With just over 10 years, the office Murdock Young has won prizes for some of its projects, such as the Cultler House in Montauk, New York, which has been published by several magazines and books.
