From design intent to built detail.
Independent design management and technical support for architectural millwork. Helping project teams develop the details, coordinate the work, and carry the design through to completion.
WHAT WE DO
The technical support behind well-built millwork.
Design management
Carry a millwork package from design development through drawing review and fabrication coordination, with a consistent point of contact for the technical details.
Design and specification review
Materials, hardware and finish coordination
Shop drawing review and revisions
Technical handoff to fabrication
Technical development
Translate design intent into clear, considered millwork drawings and details, informed by how the work will be fabricated and installed.
Shop drawings and construction details
AutoCAD and SolidWorks development
3D modelling and design development
Constructability and material review
Project support
Add experienced capacity to a busy project team. Support a defined package, work through a critical stage, or provide ongoing technical coordination.
RFIs and submittal coordination
Drawing and design-team communication
Production and installation coordination
Project-based or ongoing support
OUR APPROACH
Keep the design intent. Resolve the details.
Good millwork depends on more than a drawing. Materials, construction methods, site conditions and the people delivering the work all need to align.
MCAD connects the design and fabrication sides of a project. Our goal is to identify gaps early, make technical decisions clear, and help the finished work stay true to the original vision.
Led by Matt McDonald, MCAD brings hands-on experience in commercial millwork and working directly with hospitality ownership groups.
Practical detailing.
Clear communication.
Continuity through delivery.
