Materials & Process

Material and process, one subject at a time.

This is a growing library — individual deep-dives into the materials and processes we work with. Not a capabilities list: each entry is a read on what a material is genuinely good for, where it fights you, and where there's room to push it further. We add to it as we work.

01 Recycled Terrazzo From ceramic waste to a sellable surface — what the conversion actually takes. → 02 PVD-Coated Stainless Steel The colour is only half the coating. The base finish decides the rest. → 03 Glass Colour, opacity, and what the catalogue won't tell you. → 04 Sand-Cast Brass Honest constraints first — then the texture most quotes never mention. → 05 Powder Coating The most common finish on metal furniture — and the most commonly misspecified. →
