Metal Inlay

Metal lines or accents introduced into timber, panels or other surfaces. Determine whether the metal is flush, recessed or proud of the surrounding surface. Discuss groove preparation, adhesive or mechanical fixing and the treatment of corners, keeping the selected metal finish consistent with other visible touch points. Resolve this detail in a drawing and a representative sample before repeating it across the project. Coordinate materials, joints and installation access with adjacent elements. Define the acceptable appearance and inspection method during sample review so that the approved intent can guide production.

Discuss the selected material, geometry, hardware interface and sample acceptance before releasing a detail to manufacture.
