We are living in exciting times where new trends are emerging by the day, especially due to social media, and it’s interesting how the use of corten steel for design of all types ranging from architecture to landscape design have taken off in recent years. And we noticed a huge spike in interest for custom corten steel privacy panels/walls from around the world.

Most recently we’ve been getting inquiries from Dallas, Texas related to custom steel sculptures for cows ranging from Texas Longhorn cattle to Scottish Highland cows, along with horses which is exciting, and this post touches on the increased demand we’re seeing.

It is interesting to see how both interior and exterior/landscape design has changed over the years ranging from the materials used to trends ranging from “going green” to integrating more sustainable solutions that stand the test of time, which is one of the reasons why corten steel has become popular.

The world of residential and commercial development has changed dramatically in recent times with the introduction of more sustainable materials, creative/functional designs along with current trends and this post touches specifically on steel art, including sculptures, for commercial applications.

Matt Hill, the Founder of Matt Hill Projects, is known throughout the world for his custom dog sculptures made of corten steel that take the behaviors and memories you have from the past then transform them into pieces of art. Many of his custom pieces are focused on showing unique memories people have of their dogs — where they would sit on the porch, the look on their face when you get home, etc. — then recreating those moments.

Architectural and design trends are always changing over time and it’s interesting to see how corten steel privacy screens have become popular in the past few years, though what makes them so special?

In recent times corten steel has become a buzzword in the architecture/design community ranging from using the magical material to create furniture in public spaces to animal sculptures, privacy screens and all sorts of urban art.

There are times in our lives when we gravitate towards something unique whether it’s purchasing/building a new home or creating a landscape that reminds us of our travels from the past, and it’s those special memories that create visions for the future.
