A creative house built on heritage, collaboration, and the art of simply making.
MOK HOUSE began in the quietest way, with initials.
Before it became a creative house, before it carried a roster of collaborators and enterprise clients, “MOK” was the personal studio of founder Kell Mendoza. The name came from her initials reversed. It was a space for design, storytelling, and experimentation. A studio built from instinct rather than strategy. The kind of space where work is created late at night because the idea is too strong to ignore.
As life unfolded, so did the brand.
Kell and Harry Sayers had always worked in parallel creative worlds. Harry’s background was shaped by the music industry. He grew up in Canberra and formed the band SAFIA, playing guitar and keys. His career carried him across the world, creating with global artists and crafting work rooted in nature and emotion. His piece Live at First Light captured that sensibility, with sunlight, landscape, and sound woven into one form.
When the two brought their practices together, something larger took shape. MOK shifted from a personal studio into MOK HOUSE. A collaborative creative house built around connection, community, and the belief that creativity becomes more powerful when shared.
A House Built for Collaboration
MOK HOUSE was created with a simple philosophy.
Create great work and bring others with you.
Both founders have always thrived in environments where talent is recognised, supported, and connected to opportunity. They understood two truths.
First, Australia is full of extraordinary creative talent. Freelancers, small studios, artists, and makers with high capability, many of whom rarely get access to enterprise-level work.
Second, large organisations want better and more intentional creative output, yet often do not know where to find the right people.
MOK HOUSE built the bridge.
As an Indigenous-owned creative house, it operates as the prime contractor for enterprise and government clients. This opens the door for smaller creatives to access larger projects in ways that feel ethical and sustainable. The House connects capability to opportunity. It pairs world-class creatives with organisations that need work that is stylish, meaningful, and culturally grounded.
This structure allows MOK HOUSE to do what it does best.
Curate. Elevate. Empower.
Creativity With Heritage
Indigenous ownership is not a label for MOK HOUSE. It is a creative backbone.
It shapes the way the House approaches storytelling, connection, and collaboration. It brings warmth and humanity into environments that can often feel rigid or overly corporate. The House believes in saying things simply but never plainly. It elevates messages with creativity, culture, and intention.
MOK HOUSE will never choose basic over creative.
It will never opt for the obvious when meaning is possible.
It will never sacrifice joy for the sake of convenience.
The work exists to create impact visually, emotionally, and culturally.
Growing the House
As the House expands, its purpose remains clear.
Grow the network. Nurture relationships. Create meaningful work. Give back to the creatives who deserve stability and opportunity.
The future of MOK HOUSE is a larger, interconnected ecosystem where designers, filmmakers, musicians, technologists, and storytellers can thrive. It will offer freelancers consistency, a home for collaboration, and access to projects that once felt out of reach.
What began as a reversed set of initials has become a creative house with ambition. It is built on heritage, art, connection, and the simple desire to create and enjoy life.
MOK HOUSE exists to shine a light on talent, to elevate stories, and to build long-lasting relationships between creatives and the brands that need them.The story is still unfolding.
The House is only at the beginning.
An indigenous-led creative partner, MOK HOUSE cultivates and develops each part of the House with a deep respect for identity, craft, and the artists behind them. Ensuring every expression of the House remains authentic, intentional, and enduring.
