The “Contemporary” style embraces minimalistic elements, highlighting greys, beiges and shades of white. It has sleek, thoughtful hidden details with everything in its place, featuring designs based on function and simplicity, defined by clean lines, minimal decoration and current trends.
This interior design aesthetic has evolved since 1970 and now holds many trends that reflect a general desire to create environments that are visually pleasing, sustainable, and capable of arousing positive emotions.
Our team has been building spec homes and testing products from different suppliers while designing Product Guides which are obtainable in Step 1 (Consult and Estimate) of the process list the cabinetry, appliances and accessories, including options to mix and match for each feature of the Modular's Interior such as; Bench-tops, cabinetry, and flooring.
We bring a three-tier finishing pack system available for each Floor plan.
Simple: Minimal quantity of cabinetry, appliances and accessories, bringing an entry-level option to the Floor plan and design, leaving the majority of the interior to adapt to your requirements after the build is complete for a quick turn-around time.
Premium: Medium quantity of cabinetry, appliances and accessories, this option brings more storage and functionality to the design, but not much is needed to complete this interior.
Superior: An abundance of cabinetry and storage solutions for further functionality and appliances, this product guide brings highly recommended options from our suppliers, and each upgrade option brings an additional charge and is now considered a custom build.

Tropical cyclones can develop over oceans in the Northern coasts of Australia producing very strong winds, storm surge, heavy rainfall and flooding.
Vikal’s products are used in locations that vary in Wind Loading Regions; A, B, C & D.
With doors, windows and glass vulnerable to damage from winds, wind-borne debris and high-internal pressures which can increase the risk of your roof blowing off, at Vikal we ensure all materials are built to the Cyclone Rating requirements and comply with the Australian Standards and securely fastened to the building structure.
For an example see Karratha’s Cyclone Preparedness Guide.
Vikal’s products are used in locations with varying bushfire attack levels (BALs). A BAL is a means of measuring a building’s potential exposure to radiant heat, ember attack or direct flame contact. The higher the BAL, the more likely the building is to risk damage during a bushfire.
Vikal ensures BAL compliance by using tested products, and by applying the “deemed to satisfy” rules set out in the NCC (National Construction Code). Oftentimes, this means installing additional fire blankets, adding toughened glazing and changing the type of material and frames used.
We only require that customers inform us ahead of time of the BAL level of their house. With this information, we can make sure to provide products that comply with safety standards.
You can visit WA Bal Report for more information.
