Bas Smets redefines metalwork with a fusion of industrial precision and architectural elegance. Based in Belgium, their team approaches steel, aluminum, and specialty merges with the discipline of engineers and the eye of designers. Whether crafting structural components for high-performance buildings or sculptural installations for public spaces, their work is marked by flawless execution and a refusal to cut corners. It’s a dialogue between materiality and purpose. Projects range from razor-thin façade systems to heavy-duty machinery parts, each bearing the hallmarks of their philosophy: clean geometry, forensic attention to detail, and solutions that age as well as they perform. Collaborations with architects and manufacturers are grounded in technical expertise, but what sets them apart is an instinct for how metal should look, feel, and endure in real-world conditions.
