Master patterns & scanning · Hand-sculpted patterns

Hand-sculpted patterns for organic and artistic reliefs.

Sculpted clay, plaster and board patterns for foliage, figurative work, community art reliefs and heritage reconstruction.

Overview

Hand-sculpted patterns, in plain terms.

Some reliefs need a hand. Foliage, figures and artwork carry a life that machining alone doesn't give.

We work with sculptors to make patterns, often starting from a machined blank.

What sets it apart

Four things that define this route.

01

Organic reliefs

Leaves, flowers and natural forms.

02

Figurative work

Faces, figures and animals.

03

Community art

Artwork turned into relief.

04

Heritage reconstruction

Where nothing survives.

How we build it

From pattern to released tool.

We agree references and approval points, then sculpt, review and refine.

The finished pattern is sealed and moulded.

The honest bit

What to know before you commit.

Sculpting takes judgement and time. Approval stages keep it on track.

Get in touch

Send us a photograph of the panel or the elevation.

One photograph tells us what surface you're chasing, and one line about the mix tells us what silicone or polyurethane will survive it.
