IronCraft — Custom Metal Fabrication & Furniture Staging

The line

Made for the ground it stands on

IronCraft is my metal shop. It grew out of the land work — I kept getting asked for a gate, a fire pit, a table that wouldn't fall apart in the sun, so I started building them. Every piece is made to outlast the desert and to look right in a photo.

I draw each one up around the property it's going to live on: a gate sized to your drive, a fire pit set where the wind actually comes from, a dining table built to the span of the patio instead of whatever the catalog had.

Staging for short-term rentals

Staging is the difference between a booking and a scroll-past

I stage too. I'll help you pick the pieces, place them, and arrange the space so it photographs well and actually works for the guests using it.

A fire pit in the right spot, a hand-forged table under the stars, a gate with some presence at the end of the drive — that sets the tone before anybody walks through the door. I bring the same get-it-right-the-first-time approach to staging that I bring to every job on the land.
