CUSTOM METAL FURNITURE, LIGHTING & FABRICATION
Andrew Stansell is a Chicago based furniture and lighting designer, fabricator & sculptor who produces his own designs and offers custom lighting, furniture and metal fabrication services.
He strives for a sense of simplicity, honesty and authenticity in all his pieces. He seeks to achieve this through well thought-out design and a balanced use of proportion. This is coupled with materials that convey an almost primitive, textural feel, while retaining a sense of refinement and simple elegance.
He often treats steel in the way that traditional wood and moldings have been used in furniture or cabinetry making, and thinks of himself as a furniture maker who happens to be working with metal and welding equipment.
Projects include tables, bookcases, shelves, etageres, consoles, chairs, benches and seating, architectural iron work, industrial design, custom mounts for sculptures & art, custom hi-fi and stereo equipment stands, metal mirror and picture frames, light fixtures, fireplace surrounds, mantles & screens, armoires, vanities & cabinets, store displays & fixtures, restaurant fixtures, hand rails and outdoor café planters in steel, stainless, brass / bronze & aluminum (mig and tig processes). Metal forging, CNC, Water jet, laser and plasma cutting available.
Metal finishes include natural and patinaed steel, black oxide, powder coated, polished and plated metals (nickel, chrome, brass, galvanized plating). Transitional materials such as wood, stone and plastics available.
Custom lighting fabrication and modification services available - pendants, chandeliers, sconces, table and floor lamps fabricated from glass and metals; Incandescent, LED, halogen lamping available.

For Garage Light Back-lit Addrees5.0Andrew took on this custom commission for a 1-off back-lit address fixture.
He was methodical and solution-focused, while we threshed through the myriad of material and design details to achieve our objectives…
Its not hyperbole to say he knocked it out of the park, this fixture is a piece of industrial design art!
The old adage that “you get what you pay for” Is a gross over simplification, I’ve paid too much hoping for the best, for mediocre workmanship… more time than I’d like to remember!
However experience is priceless, and it this case it was worth every penny!
Thanks so much Andrew, I love your work, my wife loves the fixture, and its the eye candy the house we both love deserves!
I can’t tell you how proud I am to be able to display your work on the front of our house… Drop Mic!

For Patty's metal and glass cabinet (or oak frame)5.0I am so happy with the cabinet Andrew Stansell Design's crafted for me. Andrew was able to work from my sketches and the timeline for my project. Andrew keeps the line of communication open; he answered my questions, made excellent suggestions and in the end, I have a project I love.Being on the east coast was not a problem, Andrew worked with his contacts to ship the cabinet to me and it arrived in perfect condition. I would definitely work with him again and recommend his work highly
