macinteract is a Sydney-based consultancy providing Apple-based BIM and IT services to creative professionals. macinteract is comprised of real people. We are a group of architects and designers with extensive international professional experience using ArchiCAD alongside several professional rendering and other creative software packages. Our clients range from sole operators to companies with over 130 staff.
We’ve worked with and taught at various universities, and worked for leading architectural and interior design firms. We know what a deadline tastes like, have felt the dread of that spinning wheel and have first-hand experience of the ad-hoc nature of BIM and IT in growing firms.
