Mandala Design

About

Mandala Design is an integrated Interior Design practice combining all facets of Design to create beautiful spaces people love in Hotel & Resorts, Commercial, High end residential and Retail sectors.

The origin of the word “Mandala” comes from ancient Sanskrit scriptures which means “circle”. Mandalas generally have one identifiable centre point, from which radiates an array of symbols, shapes and forms, that can be both geometric and organic.

Mandala Design has sprouted from similar roots and adopts a concentric pool of ideas, inspirations, desires, values and vision for its clients to transform an individual environment to a space that customers are enthralled with their experience.

The derivative here is that different segments of Interiors - Design, Collaboration, Procurement, Supply & Delivery, Project Management all integrate and revolve around a core like a Mandala to complete the vision. Each Mandala is unique and at our design practice we strive to create that unique Mandala / space for our clients.

Testimonials

"When we were launching our boutique hotel brand, the name that struck us to collaborate with us won this journey was Devi Lecchi. Having worked with Devi on multiple occasions under a different era, we knew we could not go wrong selecting her company to dress up the interiors of the Fitzroy Hotel curated by Fable Hotel and Resorts currently ranked number 1 on Trip Advisor for Auckland Central hotels. From the consultation phase through to the handover to the hotel management team, Devi was there guiding, inspiring, and extracting exactly what we wanted to see in our hotel product in order to be able to deliver us the product we envisioned for our brand. The compliments by guests and persons within the industry for the final product reinforces our belief that partnering with Devi on this journey was the right decision. Recommending Devi and Mandala Design is a privilege for us, and we look forward to our next collaboration together."

Rakesh Pandey - Project Director CPG Hotels

"We have worked with Mandala Design for our new flagship bridal store throughout 2017 and early 2018. During this time, Devi helped us from the concept design, development design, construction document, to source all the material including flooring, joinery, lighting, furniture, colour schemes, plumbing fixtures, decorative items and all other aspects of our interior design project. Devi listened to our ideas, but also brought her own original thoughts to the table, creating a timeless look for us in our new store. It is notable that Devi always kept our budget in mind and came up with a creative solution that not only kept our costs down, but also helped our store stand out among other bridal stores. Furthermore, she worked effectively with the suppliers and traders, always making time to be available to get the job done efficiently and professionally. We highly recommend Mandala Design for any job in the interior design industry. We continue to employ them when we need to, and have the utmost trust in their continuing to do excellent work."
