Built for the Design Process
Our presentations are designed to be practical, informative, and relevant to the way architects and designers work. We focus on the details that matter when considering steel, from early design decisions and product selection to specifications and real-world project considerations.
Real Projects. Real Applications.
Our experience spans a wide range of projects, from Bar Primi at Madison Square Garden and a National Golf Club in North Georgia to cottages in Los Angeles and a 23,000-square-foot Atlanta executive home using Secco products throughout.
Steel Isn’t Right for Every Project.
We’re not trying to sell steel for every project.
Our goal is to share our experience and help architects and designers understand where steel windows and doors make sense, where they may not, and what to consider when specifying them.
Our goal is to contribute our part to Lasting Beauty for the Built Environment.
