Materials
Body Materials and Where Each One Suits
- 304 stainless steel for general outdoor use in non-coastal or low-salt environments
- 316 stainless steel for coastal areas or sites where road salt is used in winter
- Stainless steel provides a long-term, low-maintenance surface that resists rust and corrosion
- The material allows for a high-gloss mirror finish that reflects light and surroundings
- The metal can be formed into complex organic shapes like a flower without structural compromise
Manufacturing Process
How the Part Is Made
- Scheme design developed against the intended site, considering scale, light and context
- A small model created and scaled up to full size, with internal support structure designed in parallel
- Plaster mould taken from the model to guide the forming of the metal shell
- Steel plate forged to the mould and ground repeatedly to achieve the final shape and smoothness
- Surface polished or finished after welding to ensure a continuous appearance
- Final assembly and packing in a wooden crate with inner protection for delivery
Quality Control
What Is Checked Before It Ships
- The company states it runs its own professional QC team
- Welds between sections are ground and polished to be invisible on the finished surface
- Repeated grinding is part of the process to achieve a smooth, consistent shell
- Inner plastic or foam padding in the wooden crate protects the surface during shipping
- Final inspection before packing ensures no damage or marks on the polished finish
Customization
What Can Be Changed to Suit You
- Available in sizes from 3 to 9 meters, with any dimension within that range possible
- 304 or 316 stainless steel selected based on the site’s exposure conditions
- The form can be adjusted to match a reference image or technical drawing from the customer
- Base and fixing details designed to suit the installation site and wind load
- Surface finish can be specified as mirror, brushed, or painted if required
Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A bronze flower sculpture | Bronze develops a patina over time, which may be desired for aged appearance; stainless steel maintains its original finish and is better suited for a modern, clean aesthetic |
|---|---|
| A fiberglass flower sculpture | Fiberglass is lighter and cheaper at large sizes but cannot be polished to a mirror finish and is more prone to cracking or UV degradation |
| A painted mild steel flower | Painted steel requires repainting every few years; stainless steel holds its finish permanently without maintenance |
| A corten steel flower | Corten steel is chosen for its weathered, rusted appearance; stainless steel is chosen when the surface must remain unchanged and reflective |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Choose the size based on the scale of the space, not the catalogue listing
- Position the sculpture where it has a clear view of sky, planting or architecture to maximize reflection
- Ensure the base and fixing are designed for wind load, especially at the upper end of the size range
- Clean the surface with water and a soft cloth; avoid abrasives that can scratch the finish
- Specify 316 stainless steel if the site is near the coast or exposed to winter de-icing salts
- Plan 25 to 30 days for production, plus 15 to 20 days for transport from the factory to the site
