At MKDC, people are at the heart of every interior design and workplace fitout project. We know starting a new project can feel overwhelming, especially for organisations facing tight schedules, complex requirements, and fixed budgets. Clients often worry about supply chain transparency, contractor reliability, and whether builders will align with project goals. Ensuring staff wellbeing and safety while keeping operations running smoothly is also a major concern.
Our structured, client-focused approach helps organisations navigate these challenges with confidence. By managing complexity from the outset, MKDC delivers projects that are efficient, safe, and aligned with your objectives, resulting in functional, welcoming and high-performing workplaces.
With nearly 30 years of experience in human-centred design, our process begins with a deep commitment to understanding your business needs, the requirements of people using the space, and the overall project vision.
We achieve this through a detailed, evidence-based research methodology (see ‘Client Briefing + Workshops’ in the process diagram). Engaging and insightful for all participants, this approach helps develop your future workspace strategy and ensures project objectives are met with integrity and precision.
Upon appointment to your project, we finalise contracts and establish a clear communication plan and stakeholder engagement strategy to support smooth project delivery.
Prior to commencing concept planning, we gather the essential information required for project success. Our interactive workshops capture key insights efficiently, which are then strategically applied to the design brief.
We bring your plan to life by testing how effectively your project requirements fit within the available space. Our tailored test fit planning can be undertaken across multiple locations to suit your project’s specific needs.
Cost and time are critical to successful project delivery and guide every stage of our approach. We continuously manage budget against actual costs and provide clear reporting, supported by ongoing program and schedule management.
The psychology and science of colour and texture are fundamental to creating timeless interiors. Our interior architects combine this expertise with project insights to develop a considered interior design narrative that enhances functionality, aesthetics and long-term value.
Take a virtual walkthrough of your new interior—an exciting step in the design process. Our 3D visualisations and design development presentations not only bring your project to life but also serve as an effective tool for engaging staff.
Experience furniture selection first-hand with guided visits to Perth’s leading furniture showrooms. We don’t add any margins, and all trade discounts are passed directly to our clients, ensuring transparent, cost-effective solutions that enhance your interior design.
MKDC’s qualified Interior Architects deliver complete in-house project documentation. During this stage, we finalise detailed interior design specifications and coordinate with engineering and code compliance consultants, as well as building owners and managers. Every aspect is cross-checked to guarantee accuracy, compliance and optimal tender results.
Our team checks tenders for compliance, verifying that all contractor pricing aligns with project drawings and specifications. Following a thorough analysis, we deliver a comprehensive report with recommendations, support contract execution, and provide guidance on bank guarantees and retention arrangements.
Integrated within our Quality Management System (QMS), our proven methodology guides the project coordination phase. We oversee weekly reporting, on-site meetings, project financials, and scheduling, while managing contract administration, progress claim approvals, contract sum adjustments, and liaison with authorities through to practical completion.
Our defect management process occurs throughout construction and at practical completion, ensuring a smooth site handover. We manage all documentation for operating your new premises and, 12 months later, conduct the final Defects Liability inspection with the builder to address any outstanding issues.
Today’s fast-changing environment requires design to be approached with strategic intelligence, rigour, and expertise.
Our design teams are carefully selected, bringing together professionals with diverse perspectives and specialised skills to contribute across all stages of a project.
We apply a tried, tested, and proven methodology that incorporates:
Leadership in design, project coordination, and contract administration to deliver seamless project outcomes
Rigour, precision, and transparency, ensuring we act in your best interests at every stage
Strong industry connections with contractors, builders, and suppliers to optimise project delivery
Compliance with OHS, safety, and sustainability regulations, guaranteeing safe and responsible design solutions
