Website terms

These cover the website. A commission is supplied under its own written contract, and where the two disagree, the contract wins.

Draft — not yet reviewed by a solicitor

The wording below is a structurally complete draft prepared during the build so that nothing is missing when it goes for review. It has not been checked by a qualified lawyer and must not be relied on as it stands. Sections 6 and 7 — liability and governing law — are drafting notes rather than clauses. Both are jurisdiction-specific and must be written to match the supply contract.

1. What these terms cover

These terms govern your use of this website. They are not the terms on which we supply a sculpture. Every commission is supplied under a separate written contract and quotation, and where that contract and this page disagree, the contract wins.

2. Prices, bands and quotations

The price bands published on this website — including on our pricing page and alongside individual pieces — are indicative ranges, not offers. They are quoted ex-works, exclude freight, duties, foundations, crane hire and installation, and they do not commit us to a price.

A binding price exists only in a written quotation issued for a specific brief. Quotations are held open for 30 days unless the quotation itself says otherwise.

Lead times shown are typical production times and are indicative. Shipping, customs clearance and site readiness are outside our control and are stated separately.

3. Our content

All photographs, drawings, text, designs and maquettes on this website belong to us or to the clients who commissioned them. You may not reproduce them commercially, present them as your own work, or use them to solicit a quotation from another manufacturer.

Downloadable CAD blocks, Revit families and specification sheets are provided so that you can specify our work in your own drawings. That is the permitted use. They may not be redistributed or used to have a piece manufactured elsewhere.

4. What you send us

Drawings, photographs and briefs you send us remain yours. You give us permission to use them for the purpose of quoting and delivering your project, and for nothing else.

We will not publish a project, name a client, or credit an architect without permission [L:p5 §2]. If you would rather a commission stayed unpublished, tell us and it will.

5. Accuracy

We take real care with the technical content on this site — material properties, weathering behaviour, engineering guidance and dimensions. It is general information about how these materials behave, and it is not a substitute for engineering advice on your specific site. Foundations, ground conditions and local wind loading must be checked by a qualified engineer against your own project.

6. Liability

[TO DRAFT: liability wording is jurisdiction-specific and must be written by the client's solicitor. It should set out that nothing limits liability for death, personal injury caused by negligence, or fraud; that liability for website content is limited so far as the law allows; and that commission liability is governed by the supply contract rather than by this page.]

7. Governing law

[TO CONFIRM: governing law and jurisdiction. This needs to be consistent with the supply contract — a website governed by one jurisdiction and a contract by another causes real problems in a dispute.]
