Heatwave Design is focused on creating custom metal products with high-end finishes. We specialize mostly in custom handrails and guardrialings. Our in-house metal and woodworking capabilities & our network of reliable vendors allow us to tackle any job. We have worked with precious metals, exotic hardwoods, stone, glass, plastics, and more. We are dedicated to fine craftsmanship. Owner Tony DeBauche is an experienced craftsman and designer who began fabricating fine furniture while living in Austin, Texas. Since moving to the Pacific Northwest, Tony has worked on many large-scale commercial builds in and around the Seattle area. Ian Webster has been in construction for 15 years. He started out in residential remodeling as an apprentice, and ended as a commercial install foreman for one of the largest architectural steel fabricators in Washington before starting a business. Ian has complex problem solving abilities and expansive knowledge of the metal fabrication process, as well as precision survey and drafting skills for designing custom projects. We both love spending our free time in the outdoors and creating. All of our work is inspired by the things we love and we strive to be active members in our community. Ian spends his free time building mountain bike trails with a local youth outdoors program called Youth Trail Corps through the Whatcom Mountain Bike Coalition. Tony donates a portion of our proceeds to local organizations such as the NorthWest Therapeutic Riding Center and also the WMBC. If you’d like a portion of your projects proceeds to go to a specific organization, please let us know!
