Canterbury, Melbourne · Dental Fitout — Heritage Conversion
A 150-year-old heritage-listed building at the heart of Canterbury village — one of Melbourne's most architecturally significant inner suburbs. MBED managed the full engagement: heritage compliance, planning permit, construction management on an open book basis, and delivery of a 7-surgery dental practice in six months. The client moved from 2 surgeries to 7. The fitout came in 15% below comparable fixed-price quotes.
