At LUMA, we specialize in creating architectural statement pieces that fuse artistry with craftsmanship. Our expertise in both metal and wood finishes allow us to create unique, custom pieces for our clients looking for something more refined and one-of-a-kind.Â
We are always exploring new finishes and textures and testing the limits of what metal and wood finishes can do.
Metal Finishes with Depth and Character
One of our signature techniques is metal patination, an acid-etching process that darkens and ages the surface of metals like aluminum, steel, brass, bronze, and stainless steel. This process not only brings out the inherent beauty of each alloy but also adds depth and drama.
For clients seeking a softer, more refined look, we offer a range of finishes that transform metal from its raw industrial state into something elegant and unexpected.
We specialize in textured metals, which offer a tactile, three dimensional surface. Traditionally, textured metals were found abandoned in industrial settings, weathered by years of exposure to the elements. At LUMA, we’ve developed an innovative process to accelerate this natural decomposition, giving the metal a controlled texture that evokes an aged aesthetic in a fraction of the time.
Our team creates these custom textures on large 4×8 sheets, perfect for applications such as wall cladding, fireplace surrounds, custom furniture, and architectural details.
Precision and Customization with Wood Finishes
Our newly equipped woodshop allows us to take wood finishes to the next level. We have the ability to offer hand-finished surfaces, custom stains and textures. From hardwoods to veneer, we can create remarkable wood finishes and textures.
At LUMA, we pride ourselves in pushing the boundaries of material finishes, combining old-world craftsmanship with innovative techniques to offer high-end, custom projects. We are constantly exploring new techniques and rising to the challenges of custom fabrication and finishing requests. Whether you’re looking for dramatic metal textures or refined wood finishes, we’re here to help bring your vision to life.
