fabrication.
Jen Reed is a professional fabricator with deep roots in architecture, engineering, and design. Her work spans large-scale installations, immersive environments, custom furniture, and sculptural builds—often working alongside artists, architects, and production teams to turn bold ideas into durable, tactile reality. Every project is hands-on. Every detail is intentional. Whether working in steel, aircrete, GFRC, or rope, Jen brings a reverence for craft and a readiness to collaborate.
Building things—together.
