Frequently Asked Questions
Can you work from our own concept
Yes, and it is the usual way these start. A sketch, a render or a physical maquette is enough. Our designers develop it into something buildable and return views for approval before anything is cut.
Mirror or brushed for an abstract form
Mirror dissolves the form into its surroundings, brushed keeps the mass readable. On a piece whose whole point is its silhouette, brushed usually serves the design better.
Quoting a Abstract Sculpture Project
Send the position, the height you have in mind and any drawing you already have. A proposal, a price and a lead time come back against those figures.
