CRAFT Engineering Studio is a visionary studio of structural engineering consultants who are passionate about the pursuit of art and architecture from the vantage point of the engineer.
We are an internationally diverse team that operates as a studio to allow a free flow of skills and knowledge within our office environment. We rely on multidisciplinary backgrounds that include product design, architecture and computation to augment our practice as structural engineers. Our passion for the arts allows us as engineers to more effectively engage and communicate with architects, artists and fabricators as clients. We understand the need to be open-minded and creative thinkers which leads to imaginative problem solving and innovative solutions. CRAFT caters to the client who challenges traditional notions of structural engineering consulting and seeks a creative and collaborative partner in the process of design and its execution.
CRAFT was founded in the spring of 2010 by Nathaniel M. Stanton PE CE SE AIA to more effectively address the desire among architects for an engineering consultant that is progressive and forward thinking but operates on a scale that engenders creativity and collaboration between disciplines. This pursuit builds on over 25 years of experience in the analysis and design of high-end residential and commercial structures in a variety of settings including high seismic regions and coastal zones subject to flooding and hurricane force winds.
