Materials & techniques — the working knowledge.

What we build awards out of, and how we mark them. 16 guides.

Eight materials

What we build with.

Glass, metal, wood, resin, 3D-printed forms, acrylic, concrete, stone — each has its own visual gravity, weight, and engraving behavior. We routinely combine two or three in a single commission.

Eight techniques

How we mark it.

Sandblasting, CO₂ surface and 3D internal laser engraving, painting, UV printing, fusing, metallization, plaque engraving. The technique gets chosen for the material — and for what the brand asset needs to look like on the piece.
