Custom Planters for Architectural Landscapes.

We manufacture custom metal planters tailored to the project's dimensions, architectural character, and planting requirements. Primarily fabricated in aluminum, our planters offer a durable, lightweight alternative to concrete, with flexibility in shape, size, finish, and configuration. Stone options are also available for projects requiring a different material expression.

Made to Fit the Vision.

Every landscape has its own requirements, which is why we create custom planters in a range of sizes, shapes, configurations, and finishes to complement the surrounding architecture and planting design. From clean-lined metal planters to sculptural stone pieces, each solution is designed to bring structure, character, and greenery to the built environment.

FAQs about planters.

All FAQs
How does a planter project typically start?

Send us your project dimensions, drawings, design references, and a brief outlining your planter requirements through our project inquiry form. Our team will review the scope and provide a written proposal based on the project's specifications. Once approved, we develop detailed shop drawings for your review and approval before fabrication begins.

Do you work on commercial and residential projects?

Yes, both. We work on projects of every scale, from private homes and estates to luxury hotels, resorts, spas, golf clubs, restaurants, nightlife venues, and public spaces. Every piece is custom designed to fit its setting, whether that's a private or commercial space.

How do you work?

We design, engineer, and fabricate every piece, and coordinate the logistics and installation details with your team. Most clients work with their own installer; if you don't have one, we can recommend licensed, insured installation partners. After handover, we stay on as your point of contact for maintenance.

Can you create custom shapes and sizes?

Yes. We custom build planters in a wide range of shapes, sizes, dimensions, and configurations. From individual statement planters to coordinated planter arrangements for rooftops, podium decks, residential terraces, and mixed-use developments, each design is tailored to the project's architectural requirements and landscape plan.

What materials are available for custom planters?

Our planters are primarily fabricated from aluminum, offering design flexibility across a range of shapes, sizes, and finishes. Stone planters are also available for projects requiring a different material, texture, or aesthetic. Material selection is based on the project's design intent, dimensions, and functional requirements.

How do I maintain it?

Metal and stone pieces need only occasional cleaning, and every finish is chosen for the outdoor setting it lives in.
