Architectural & Structural Design

​

At 33 FAB, we provide expert architectural and structural design services that go beyond the drawing board. Whether you're planning a bespoke staircase, structural steel assembly, or a full production upgrade, our in-house team transforms complex ideas into fabrication-ready solutions. All optimised for performance, safety and installability.

​

We support architects, main contractors, facility managers, and manufacturers by combining design thinking with deep hands-on experience in metal fabrication, welding, and installation. From initial concept sketches to full technical drawing packages, we help you visualise, refine, and realise your project with total confidence.

​

Our design services are often integrated with our fabrication and install capabilities, giving clients a full turnkey solution under one roof. This creates faster lead times, fewer revisions, and seamless delivery from start to finish.
