About Figure Plant

We’re part design lab, part engineering studio, and part fabrication shop. Using our deep knowledge and curiosity, collective creative skillset, expert design + fabrication services, and seasoned project management, we partner with our clients to create and build inspirational custom environments and experiences, from ideation to installation.

Our Evolution

Like many aspirational brands, Figure Plant started in a garage. 25 years ago, I had the notion for a multi-disciplinary, creative fabrication workshop that fulfills a variety of design visions and creative ideas in a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment. From that one-man shop in a 400 sq. ft. garage to today’s 20,000 sq. ft. facility, much has evolved. But no matter the source, the projects are alike: three-dimensional, physical objects and environments that inspire, inform, and motivate.
