Who We Are
Hybrid Fab is a Houston-based design team specializing in custom turnkey architecture metal design, engineering, and fabrication. Our name tells our story – ‘Hybrid’ refers to the blend of exemplary creative craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology brought to each individual project, whereas ‘Fab’ for fabrication describes the precisely cut and tailored finishing we have for each piece. We strive to create an experience in every space, guiding the transformation from an architect’s carefully designed vision to an impactful reality.
Inspired to tell a story in every space, Hybrid Fab blends exemplary creative craftsmanship with cutting edge technology to bring the highest degree of quality metalwork.
What started out as an idea between close friends hailing from University of Houston’s Gerald D. Hines College of Architecture has developed into bringing beautifully crafted metalwork to the Texas high-end commercial and residential fabrication and installation industry. Though extremely diverse in personality, co-founders Andy, Santi and Frank rally to a common vision—leveraging the power of the human mind to engage with the process of metalwork creation.
With each co-founder bringing a different area of expertise to the table, Hybrid Fab’s core strength derives from the passion and respect each member of the team puts forth in each project.
Hybrid Fab blends exemplary creative craftsmanship with cutting edge technology to bring you and your business the highest degree of quality metalwork. By combining the intuition and expressivity of human skill with the precision and scalability of machine, hybrid fabrication brings together duality between hand and machine through practice.¹
With Texas roots, Hybrid Fab is proud to serve cities across the Texas architectural landscape, from smaller towns in the Rio Grande Valley to El Paso to including metropolitan cities including Houston, Austin, San Antonio and Dallas. We are committed to utilizing our trade expertise in collaboration with developers, general contractors, architects, and builders to deliver quality metalwork.
