All medias/materials
We’ve been developing and refining media blasting techniques since 1998. With two full-scale blast rooms, wet and dry cabinets, and automated equipment, our shop handles a wide range of materials and surfaces in-house—and on-site when needed. We work with both conventional and unconventional blast media, offering treatments that range from purely functional to deeply expressive.
Our approach is both technical and artistic. Blasting is a method where material and technique evolve together, each shaping and refining the other. By adjusting variables like pressure, media type, and blast angle, we create finishes that reveal the dynamic relationship between impact and abrasion. These subtleties allow us to deliberately enhance wood grain, erode stone, brighten metal, or expose the structure of layered surfaces.
We collaborate with artists, architects, designers, builders, scientists, museums, and conservators. Whether refining a delicate detail or dramatically reshaping a surface, we bring over two decades of experience, deep material sensitivity, and a willingness to experiment. Each project is a chance to make something lasting and beautiful.

Art fabrication
Fine object making
Installation
Fabrication in metal, stone, glass, wood, & other materials
We are a full-service fabrication studio with over 25 years of experience supporting artists, designers, and institutions. Our work ranges from one-of-a-kind sculptures and awards to editions, mounts, and exhibition components. With a deep understanding of materials and processes, we approach each project as a creative collaboration—balancing craft, concept, and precision. Our studio is equipped for metalwork, woodwork, glass and stone fabrication, and fine object-making, allowing us to handle most projects in-house. Clients include contemporary artists, museums, galleries, universities, and commercial brands who trust us to help bring complex ideas into physical form.

Blast finishing
Gilding/eglomise
Finishing in metal, stone, glass, wood, & other materials
We have been refining and expanding our approach to finishing for over two decades, enhancing and transforming surfaces through a deep understanding of material and process. From small art objects and products to monumental sculptures and architectural facades, we craft finishes that elevate the material’s inherent qualities. From texturing and weathering to patination and gilding, each project can be an opportunity to explore new techniques and expand material possibilities. We collaborate closely with clients to develop finishes that not only meet aesthetic and functional needs but also resonate with the unique context of each project.

Process development
Material & finish replication
Prototyping
We are a collaborator with decades of experience in material research and prototyping. We bring to every new relationship a long history of exploration into materials and fabrication processes. Alongside sample creation, our in-house designers produce renderings and drawings that provide our collaborators with realistic visuals to respond to and interact with. We love working with clients with a vision in the earliest stages of its development, when we can build a process together and from the ground up.

Fine art
Historical artifacts
Design objects
Our passion for art and design has always been our driving force. We relish the opportunity to work with artists and institutions towards restoring impactful art works and historic artifacts. As a studio of artists and artisans, we feel that restoration goes beyond engaging with the physical material of the work. We aim to understand the intention and processes of the artist themselves. We begin with thorough research that leads to the development of specific techniques that honor the quality and vision of the work of the creators before us. We work very closely with the artists, organizations, and institutions that have a stake in the rehabilitation of great works, seeing this process as a great conversation between people, between past and future.

Glass etching
Églomisé
Gilding
We specialize in glass as both an artistic and architectural medium. Whether working with artists like Sarah Beddington to create expressive glass installations or developing architectural glass that integrates texture, pattern, and light, we bring a meticulous, hands-on approach to every project. Our work includes developing textures, etching, and refining finishes that enhance the material’s natural beauty, transforming glass into a dynamic, tactile element within any space. We also specialize in age-old techniques like gilding and verre églomisé, which bring out the unique qualities of glass through careful, hands-on craftsmanship.
