How to Choose the Right Size for a Garden Sculpture
The single most common regret is a piece that is too small. Here is how to get the scale right before anything is fabricated.
Industry Application
Sculpture for Villas and Private Residences
Interior and garden pieces at domestic scale, for private houses, villas and apartment schemes.
Pain Points
What Goes Wrong in This Sector
- Domestic ceiling heights punish a piece that was designed for a commercial lobby
- One piece is needed, not a container
- Delivery into a finished house has to be handled without marking anything
- Owners want something that is theirs, not something their neighbour can also buy
Customer Needs
What Buyers Here Actually Need
- Scale that suits a living room, a corridor or a private garden
- A supplier that quotes a single piece seriously
- Careful packing and a piece light enough to be carried in
- A design developed from the owner's own reference rather than a stock form

How a Project in This Sector Runs
1
Custom Sculpture From Brief to Installation
The full route from a sketch on a napkin to a crated piece with an anchor pattern drawing. This is how most projects here actually run.
2
Mirror Polished Stainless Steel Fabrication
Why a mirror finish is a fabrication problem before it is a polishing problem, and how the seams are made to disappear.
3
Corten Steel Weathering and Patina Control
How weathering steel is fabricated so the colour arrives settled, the welds do not show, and the run off does not stain the paving.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work directly with villas and private residences or only through agents
Directly. Most enquiries come from the designer, the contractor or the operator, and the drawing conversation happens with our own design team rather than through a trading company.
Can you quote before the design is finalised
An indicative price can be given from a position, a height and a reference image. A firm price needs the design settled, because the material, the structure and the finish are what drive the cost.
What happens if the site access turns out to be tighter than expected
Tell us the real constraint as early as you can. Where access is restricted the piece is split at joints chosen during design, trial assembled in the workshop, then marked so it reassembles in order on site.
Who is responsible for the foundation
We issue the base plate and anchor pattern as a drawing. The foundation itself is normally cast by your own contractor to that drawing, which lets it cure while the piece is still being fabricated.
