5 Ways Architectural Metalwork Can Transform Your Home

A blend of function and design, architectural metalwork is metal featured in architectural design and construction that turns plain structures into design features. To put it simply, it’s functional art. Because of the strength and flexibility of metal, it is one of the best mediums for this type of design. Featuring metalwork is a great way to bring truly unique pieces into your home, especially if they are custom-made. At FYP we specialize in taking a complex design dream and bring it to life.

If you are looking for a creative way to add some décor to your home with an industrial flair, here are five examples of how you can use architectural metalwork in your home.

Staircase/Patio Railing

If you have a two-story home or a patio, implementing custom railings is a great way to bring in some custom metal art. Whether you have spiral stairs, a modern sleek design, or a very elegant and elaborate style, these stair railings can be made in just about any shape, design and size.

Chandelier/Lighting Fixture

Light fixtures are often a major focal point of a room. Make sure your chandelier or hanging lights are the centerpiece of your dining room, kitchen or foyer with a custom architectural metalwork shade.

Wall Art

Similar to chandeliers, wall art brings a lot of character to a room. Whether you want to display your family name, a tribute to your favorite pet, or something a little more abstract. Metal artwork is a great way to get that customization you desire.

Roman Awning/Pergola

Summer is a great time to be outside for pool parties, BBQs, and just spending time with friends and family. Give your backyard some architectural flare (as well as some much-needed shade by attaching tarping or tenting) with a metalwork roman awning or pergola.

Truss Plates

If you’re looking for something a little more low-key from a full roman awning, maybe consider truss plates. These bring a great, simple design element while providing lots of functionality.
