Two minds.
One obsession.
Driven by creativity. Powered by technique. We’re a Gold Coast studio that turns exhibition, display and retail briefs into visuals you can trust before you build.
Born from the show floor.
MAE began on the Gold Coast, inside the exhibition industry — where a stand has one chance to land and there’s no second take on the show floor. That pressure taught us to resolve every decision early, in pixels, long before anything is cut or shipped.
We pair two complementary backgrounds: years of high-end 3D rendering for architecture and exhibition, and a decade of industrial engineering and lean project delivery. One side obsesses over light, material and mood. The other over process, accuracy and the realities of the build. Together that’s the whole picture — concepts that excite, and drawings that survive contact with production.
We work across Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and New Zealand — and we believe all ideas deserve a nudge.
Behind every render,
two obsessives.

Three things we
never compromise.
Accuracy over aesthetics.
A beautiful render that can’t be built is just a pretty picture. We make sure what you see is what your team can produce.
Fast without rushing.
Lean process means quick turnarounds that still hold up to scrutiny. You move fast; the detail stays intact.
Your vision, our language.
We translate a brief, a sketch or a floor plan into visuals that sell the idea — internally and to your client.
