Look, we're not here to sugarcoat it - old industrial buildings have soul. And we've spent years figuring out how to honor that while making 'em work for today. That's what we do at Tandreli Forge.
Years preserving what matters
Started out doing commercial stuff like everyone else. Then one day we took on this old forge building in Liberty Village - total mess, everyone said tear it down. But man, those brick walls, those iron beams... we couldn't do it. Spent months figuring out how to make it modern without losing what made it special.
Now? That's pretty much all we do. Industrial heritage meets contemporary design. Some call it niche, we call it knowing our lane and staying in it.
Certified in heritage preservation methods
Green certification consulting included
Bringing old factories, warehouses, and forge buildings back to life. We know which walls stay and which need help.
Modern commercial spaces that don't look like every other glass box downtown. Function meets character.
Working with historical societies and city officials to keep important buildings standing. It's paperwork and passion.
Making old buildings energy efficient without ruining them. It's doable, just takes some creativity.
Helping cities figure out what to do with industrial districts. Mixed-use, adaptive reuse - that whole thing.
Navigating LEED and other certifications. Yeah, there's a lot of forms, but we've done it enough times now.
First coffee's on us. We walk the site together, talk about what you're seeing versus what we're seeing. Then we dig into archives - old photos, original plans if we can find 'em, structural reports.
Design phase is collaborative. We sketch, you react, we adjust. No big reveal where you're stuck with something you hate. By the time we're done, it feels like your vision with our expertise baked in.
