Special
Projects opened its doors in 1997 to pursue an active design and
construction practice. Architect Andrew
Leager started the company
after finding the world of straight architectural commissions too
confining. "I set up the shop
to answer a need to keep my hands on materials. It always teaches
me something".
Now
in our tenth year, Special Projects has made steady progress toward
equipping itself with machines
and skills to accomplish the exciting, unusual, and sometimes
difficult tasks. Our client list includes many of the best-regarded
contractors in the region. Between projects we augment our shop
capacity with limited production runs of in-house furniture designs.
Shop
drawings are the pride of Special Projects. We use computers to
build digital models of each design and provide pictorial views
to our clients. From these same models we produce precise component
drawings for manufacture.
Special
Projects is expanding into the private sector, offering custom cabinetry
and detailed architectural millwork to homeowners and individuals
with specific design requirements. The ability of our company to
conceptualize and produce virtually any type of interior or exterior
structural or aesthetic element offers homeowners an opportunity
for unlimited creative license with their living space. Contact
Travis
Leager to get more details and a consultation for custom
design work.
We
intend to remain located in the downtown Raleigh area so that we
can answer the call for new work there. As downtown gains strength
from new public facilities, so too will private enterprise. We want
to stay associated with that entrepreneurial urban community. |
