MHDP Architects are a Sydney-based architecture practice dedicated to bringing our clients’ visions to life, with over 35 years of experience creating buildings across the country in a number of sectors. We work closely with every client to understand exactly what they need, tailoring each project — from concept to completion — around their goals, their site, and their budget. No two projects are the same, because no two clients are.
In 1991 Mark Hurcum Design Practice was started by Mark and his Partner Linda to explore a positive synergy between design and business. The strategic analysis of design was applied to the business while business management principles were applied to the design and production process. The Stamp Factory in Darlinghurst was MHDP’s first project, which won an MBA National Award.

TESTIMONIALS
Our client’s needs and visions drive our process and throughout the entire project we advocate on their behalf and to achieve their outcomes. We have many return clients. The most common response from our clients is that they enjoyed the journey and the process as well as the outcome. We see the project as a collaboration with our clients and they are very much encouraged to be involved and informed.
EASTERN SUBURBS • WATERFRONT RESIDENCE • 2009
We would like to thank Mark , Ben and the MHDP team for their work in designing and building our home. The original design for the new house was drawn by a noted Sydney architect but the estimated build cost was way beyond our expectations. MHDP managed to take the plan and reimagine it in a much more cost effective way, with many added improvements, then introduced the builder and got it built, on time and on budget. Amazing. We are very happy with the end result and the whole project was carried out in a friendly inclusive manner, which helped make this an enjoyable experience from start to finish.

NORWEST BUSINESS PARK • PLANNING PROPOSAL • MULTI-USE DEVELOPMENT • 2016
I have used MHDP Architects for six years across a broad spectrum of Architectural projects: a commercial high-rise planning proposal, multi-home residential, apartment and a personal home renovation.
At the beginning of any project Mark and his team are very quick to get across the brief and put together excellent concepts which become the foundation for further discussion and design. One feels the desired outcomes are well understood and always front of mind.

It is an absolute pleasure to live in our Mark Hurcum designed home. We know this – as we have deliberately sought to live in two of these homes now and we enjoy the benefits of living with exceptional design every day.
It is a joy to be in such beautiful buildings and in such beautiful spaces. These spaces have flare. They have been well thought through to function efficiently for us, the occupants, providing a lifestyle quality sadly missing for so many.

A positive environment allows for greater creativity and achievement. While building is complex and sometimes stressful, we endeavour to minimise the impact and make the process enjoyable. Fairness, honesty and getting the right results for everyone involved is key to how we work. We expect that of ourselves and we expect that of everyone involved in the project.
