How we work

A Custom, Project-Specific Practice

Our work is entirely custom and project-driven.
We do not offer catalogue products or off-the-shelf solutions as of now.

Each project is developed in response to its specific context — design intent, material choice, scale, and method of execution. This allows us to focus on depth, clarity, and long-term performance rather than volume or repetition.

Collaboration-Led Engagement

We primarily collaborate with architects and designers on projects where metalwork plays a critical architectural or spatial role.

Early involvement allows us to:

  • Contribute fabrication insight during design development

  • Identify constraints before they become site issues

  • Align detailing with real production methods

Direct commissions are considered selectively, where the scope and approach align with this way of working.

Design to Fabrication Integration

Fabrication is not treated as a downstream task.

Design development, prototyping, detailing, and execution are approached as a continuous process. Decisions are informed by how materials behave when cut, bent, joined, cast, and finished — not just how they appear in drawings or renders.

This integration helps maintain clarity between intent and outcome, especially in projects involving non-standard details or experimental elements.

Prototyping and Resolution

Where required, we develop prototypes or mock-ups to test:

  • proportions and junctions

  • surface finishes and tolerances

  • assembly logic and structural behaviour

Prototyping allows critical decisions to be resolved before full execution, reducing ambiguity and on-site corrections.

What This Approach Enables

  • Custom solutions without unnecessary complexity

  • Better alignment between design intent and execution

  • Reduced friction between drawing, making, and installation

  • Work that is durable, precise, and materially honest

Working With Us

We work best with collaborators who value early dialogue, clear intent, and respect for process. Projects that treat making as an integral part of design tend to produce the strongest outcomes.
