CRAN Tour: Chris French Metal Studio
Join CRAN SF for an exclusive tour of Chris French Metal, one of the Bay Area's most respected custom metal fabrication studios, located in West Oakland.
Hosted by founder Chris French, this hands-on tour offers architects and designers a rare look at how custom metalwork moves from concept to creation — exploring both traditional techniques and cutting-edge digital fabrication methods. Whether you work with metal regularly or are simply curious about the process, you'll leave with a deeper appreciation for the material and the makers behind it.
After the tour, the group will gather a few blocks away at Brix Factory Brewing and Junes Pizza, to continue the conversation over drinks and food. Carpools from San Francisco can be coordinated the week of the event once the participant list is confirmed.
Space is limited — register today to secure your spot.
This event is hosted in collaboration with AIA East Bay.
