Lead Installer - San Diego, United States - Tecture

Description

Who is Tecture?

Founded in a garage in 2012, Tecture is a design and fabrication studio that lives at the intersection of architecture and art.

We practice a professional process that allows us to break the rules on occasion, and write new ones when needed.

Our team of wild, dedicated creatives finds fun in design; crafting outside-the-box projects both for our clients and to fulfill our own passions.

Our award-winning work is built on the unique needs of each client, and we are constantly searching for new techniques and materials to stay on the forefront of the design industry.

We have a little sass, and know that little goes a long way.

We are a team of beach bums, design fanatics, and innovators who take pride in crafting beautiful solutions for our clients.

Design and Fabrication, that's what sets us apart from others in the industry. Our Design team utilizes the services of the Fabrication workshop, testing materials, creating prototypes, and fabricating elements. Conversely, our Fabrication team works closely with the Design studio, discussing processes, chewing on details, and creating samples.

The symbiotic relationship between these two worlds allows us to offer exceptional turnkey solutions and to push the boundaries of our craft.

We love what we do and believe that it shows in our work.
