Damian Velasquez

Damian has been designing beautiful objects since he was eleven when he learned to make sterling silver jewelry from his father. His core design values infuse each piece that he designs and builds: simple, functional and expertly crafted. He has perfected his craftsmanship over the course of twenty-one years and has mastered the skills of welding, woodworking and finishing.

Damian is continually evolving his repertoire of design and fabrication skills and many of his original pieces are still in production to this day. His first furniture designs were constructed solely of powder coated steel; he then started to incorporate richly hued wood into his steel frame structures, creating his signature look for tables, dressers and chairs. His latest evolution, a collection dubbed Half13, has him at full circle turning expanded stainless steel into stunning, sculptural outdoor furniture that is as comfortable as it is beautiful.
