Design and Concept Development

We work with our clients to take their concepts to the next level. With the use of CAD we will produce concept drawings, renders and technical documentation to support all aspects of the design process. From a concept sketch we can produce digital drawings for visuals, installation diagrams and product data sheet drawings. All we need is a brief. We'll work with you though the design and development process to ensure all designs are fine tuned, efficient and sustainable.

We're also not afraid to get our hands dirty. We will work with our clients to best realise their prototype requirements, supporting where possible, manufacturers and hand finishing concept models.

3D Scanning

With 3D scanning the applications can be endless, and we are here to help our clients utilise this. From a full human body scan, to an intricate detail on an antique, the topography can be captured and used to enhance the design and development process. Often used for reverse engineering and producing 3D models that can be exported directly to CNC manufacturers or additive manufacturing processes such as 3D printing. We've worked with sculpture artists, casting foundries, set designers and design houses to incorporate 3D scanning into their workflow.

3D Printing

3D Printing has become a powerful tool in the design and development process. We work with our clients to enhance their designs and produce fast paced prototypes. Offering a range of printing services we can help turn ideas into reality within a short space of time. If we can't print it for you we can point you in the direction of one of our partners who can. Whether patterns are needed for mould making, product prototypes for ergonomic testing or the odd desk ornament, printing is always an option no matter the size. Contact us to discuss your printing project.

Space Visualisation

We work with a large variety of clients to help visualise the potential of a space. Whether you're an interior designer, joiner, set builder or simply working on a home project. We can create your space in a digital format, allowing you to see the potential before committing to expensive works. We work closely with our clients to ensure all design details are met, and where required will discuss the project with makers to ensure installations meet the design. From display stands to bespoke kitchens, we can help realise your brief through renders, technical drawings or walkthrough animations.
