ABOUT THE FIRM

Beginning in 1999 as a way to help support a fine art career Chris began making functional objects with metal. This practical approach to a formal training began to demonstrate his true passions for building, problem solving, planning, coordination, collaboration and organization. Formally established in 2001 CFM has grown into a talented and highly skilled team of artists, designers and fabricators.

CFM is a full service design driven architectural metal firm offering consultation, design assistance, shop drawings, fabrication and finish work as well as delivery and installation. We facilitate extensive coordination with architects, engineers, designers and other building trades. Our shop is committed to offering each client a unique experience within the field of custom metal; providing straightforward customer service with artistic vision, superior technical skill, craftsmanship and execution.

Our collective experience has given us a working understanding of current fabrication technologies along with traditional craft methods. We specialize in projects that require thoughtful design solutions and precision detailing. Our palate is diverse, working with a variety of metals: steel, aluminum, bronze, stainless steel, copper and brass. Having working relationships with artists and other professionals allows us to incorporate wood, concrete, glass and other material into our projects.
