Crosstree, Inc. was an architectural metal fabrication laboratory carrying out the cross-disciplinary practice of fabrication and design. We provided services and products to architecture, engineering and construction industries for residential, commercial and institutional applications. The staff at Crosstree shared a common goal in our passion for design and fabrication. All staff members held professional degrees in the field of architecture, design, engineering and/or fine arts. Our backgrounds enabled us to communicate on common ground with design firms to better understand their ideas and intents. Our passion combined with our detail-oriented fabrication and state-of-the-art facility created an ideal framework for fabricating unique metal work of exceptional quality. Since 1996, Crosstree has built its reputation as the custom metal fabricator of choice by architectural firms in Chicago and New York City. In 2012, our lab introduced Seed, an open source design system which transformed our endeavor from private to public domain. Crosstree, Inc ceased to exist as an incorporated entity/company in Illinois legally after 2016. Our spirit lives on, readying ourselves with bright new visions to venture our to serve as the DAO community project on Web3 in the near future.
