This forged and fabricated stainless steel trellis provides lightweight, secure protection for observation deck visitors and reintegrates a cherished icon into the urban experience. This contemporary design solution is sensitive to the historic context, precisely coordinated with both client and contractors, and considers construction and installation on a busy and prominent building.

This series of gates, fences, seats, and walls create a functional boundary and establish the outermost impressions of the UT Exes Visitor Center. Abstracting the familiar "Longhorn" logo, this solution subtly incorporates school symbols providing a unifying visual element for the University facility.

The railing, which defines the edge of a public entry plaza, uses local materials and botanical forms to create a uniquely integrated expression of the local community.

This gateway design illustrates a profusion of flora representing the most noteworthy plant types in the Gardens. Eighteen-foot sections at the main entrance present a memorable first impression of the gardens as seen from Barton Springs Road and contribute to the visual character of Zilker Park. Desert and woodland plants are expressed in a naturalistic collage inspired by the aspirations of the garden club members who volunteer to care for the gardens.  Fabricated in collaboration with Herrera Ironworks.

These are some custom sconces we recently shipped to San Diego for an office building.  The client's designer riffed on our very popular Slat design.  We made the sconces in three sizes for this project.  All are for exterior locations.

This is an outdoor or meditation bench

This is July 14, 2011. This is a typical day for us in Coupland, Texas. 

The Umasi Collection is specifically designed to blur the line between furniture and sculpture - with perfect panels that collide into organic elements. 

Because Umasi is largely built of salvaged materials, it clearly comments on the nature of our consumer society. But it's also a ready platform for other forms of social commentary, with references to art history, contemporary culture, and even the politics of war.

We hope you enjoy Umasi. 

This is a wall-mounted sculpture to suggest waves crashing on the shore. The steel is forged and twisted, and the colored glass bubbles are posted off the wall to allow the light to pass through the bubbles and create colored shadows on the wall. 

The Gift shop needed White Oak jewelry display stands in the style of the architecture and cabinetry....

In the shape of cones, discs, chunks,  and cubes - in linen and  white oak.

Fall 2009 Museums & More Magazine: Beautiful new jewelry cases motived the Gift Shop team to come up with a new visual merchandising plan.

"We had a local woodworking artist design oak fixtures to match the wood tone of the cases.  then we lined the cases with soft celery linen and created linen cones

for necklaces ....."
