About Us
As a small team of creatives, we honestly love the work we do. From our Brisbane-based studio, our mission is to create beautiful laser cut decorative metal screens which inspire people to reflect, ignite conversations, admire the beauty and ultimately, enhance the space in which they live, study and work, through distinctively different, drool-worthy designs.
We listen. We create. We deliver. We thrive on your stories and we look to strategically create solutions which go above and beyond your expectations.

Our Why
Our greater goal is a society where people feel connected, seen and heard. We play our small part by designing with intention, visually communicating stories and working collaboratively. We want people to experience space, rather than just passing through it.
By collaborating with architects and designers, and by linking customers and builders directly with manufacturers, we create projects which are not only iconic in nature, on budget but they’re also doing good for the planet.
