Year Founded
Established year reflecting over a decade of experience in metal fabrication and design.
It began as a craft‑driven metal fabrication studio blending design vision with architectural execution.
Working globally, the company transforms designer and engineering sketches into bespoke metal sculptures, railings, countertops, and structural features.
Its machine shop includes 5‑axis CNC waterjet, mills, lathes, laser and TIG/MIG welding, sheet‑metal forming and polishing across exotic metals and non‑metal materials.
Projects span residential and commercial architecture—from decorative stair‑railings and pewter surfaces to custom safety products and municipal installations.
In municipal projects, it fabricates park signage, decorative traffic railings and water conveyance infrastructure components.
It supports renewable energy and greentech sectors, holding certifications to meet Buy America and American Iron & Steel requirements.
It also tackles ag & food processing fabrication and repairs, helping keep production lines running smoothly.
Notably, the studio blends artistry and function—working with metals like steel, brass, bronze, pewter, titanium and even stone or wood in hybrid installations.
