We Are “Thinking Makers”

 

Radii Inc. is a multi-disciplined fabrication studio comprised of “thinking makers” who successfully collaborate with notable design professionals to execute award-winning projects with superior precision, thought, and clarity.

Founding partner and industry veteran Ed Wood leads his handpicked team of design-fabricators who employ innovative fabrication solutions and expert visualization-experimentation to create scaled architecture, art, and objects of the highest quality.

The Radii team understands that their reputation is not defined simply by “the things they make,” but rather by the satisfaction of the clients they serve and the success of each project they create.

 

Our Process. Our Space. Our Tools

 

•  Brainstorming and fast grasp of project concept and goals. 

•  Cost-effective problem-solving for visualization, technique, materiality, scope options.

•  Added value as a collaborative extension of any design team offering years of expertise.

•  Creative design phase solutions: physical testing, mock-ups, project control samples.
