Fixtures for Vasen Brewing Company

in , , ,

We were happy to help our friends and neighbors at Vasen Brewing Company out with a series of custom fixtures. Their beautiful new taproom features the fine work of many local Richmond companies and makers. Stop by to take it all in and grab a pint of one of their specialty farmhouse ales!

We worked with lighting designer Wendy Umanoff to create this large, forged steel chandelier that hangs in the entrance of the taproom. Scroll though the photos to see a few our process shots.

When it came time to create a sign for the brewery, our signature folded steel bowls and wall sculptures provided just the right inspiration.

Our next project for the taproom was a foot rail for the bar. We forged the foot rail from heavily textured solid steel round bar, along with coordinating brackets to hold it in place.

And last but certainly not least, we forged steel brackets to support the live-edge drink rails created by our friends at Surface Architectural. Bonus peek of the talented Emily Herr's mural in the background.

Shagbark Bar Rail

in

Shagbark is a new southern-inspired, locally sourced restaurant here in Richmond. They recently opened their doors in the Libbie Mill shopping center, and we were thrilled to be on the team of local makers that created the beautiful decor.

Kyle designed the bar rail and worked with his assistant Kallen (pictured) to forge the parts and install the finished bar rail at the restaurant.

Stop by the restaurant to see more of the gorgeous interior, including several pieces made from their shagbark hickory namesake, and of course sample the delicious food!
