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).

For Steel Rolling Library LadderAndrew is great to work with. The ladder he built for us is quality made and his communication was timely. He provided all we needed for installation. I highly recommend his work.
Katie Patterson
For Reception DeskWe couldn't be happier with the outcome of our projects with Andrew Stansell Design. The entire process from start to finish was a positive experience. Andrew kept in constant contact, made suggestions on best practices, and completely understood our vision. The team he brought with him for installation was friendly, experienced and professional and the final outcome has exceeded our expectations. The pieces he designed for our office reception area are the highlights of the room and receive praise from all who see them. I am already working with Andrew on another project and highly recommend him to anyone.

For Patty's metal and glass cabinet (or oak frame)I 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

For Steel Rolling Library LadderWe worked with Andrew to create a 60-foot long library ladder, spanning multiple bookshelves, with multiple ladders. Andrew worked with us to develop a design for the ladder and multiple unique connection details, and was in constant communication about the progress and development of the many details. The final product speaks for itself: a well-crafted, well-executed rolling ladder that looks great in the space. We hope to work with Andrew in the future!

For Custom Steel Console TableAndrew was great - he was very communicative and transparent about the details of the project as well as timing (actually delivered early). The end result was a beautiful piece that fits perfectly where we intended and I'd be happy to work with Andrew again in the future.
