ABOUT
DCLA FAB
DCLA FAB is an industrial fabrication and experiential design studio. We build heavy upcycled structural environments, custom thematic installations, and precision architectural assets for spaces that demand historical permanence.
THE ARTIST-ENGINEER MODEL
By integrating design and physical fabrication under a single roof, we eliminate the communication gaps, tolerance drift, and structural errors common to detached job shops. This strict accountability applies equally to multi-room museum environments and precision production micro-runs.
By retaining full project authority in-house, we prevent field alignment conflicts, scope drift, and finger-pointing across every phase of execution. Whether engineering an experiential retail storefront or an architectural installation, the exact same creative engineering discipline applies, ensuring that every asset we deploy anchors cleanly into its real-world environment without structural compromise.
RECLAIMED MATERIAL CODES
Our true passion lies in the transformation of raw material heritage. We scout and upcycle industrial components, heavy architectural salvage, and raw mechanical artifacts, translating them into highly calibrated interior environments for our clients.
But we don’t just place objects in a room; we completely engineer them. Every artifact we harvest is structurally analyzed, modeled in CAD, and meticulously integrated into your environment’s load paths and spatial flow. Our process ensures that every vintage texture and historical artifact is structurally fortified to satisfy stringent architectural requirements without compromising its authentic visual heritage.
