A stillness carved from motion. A moment held in form.
Bespoke works designed in dialogue with clients, architects, and spaces.
FORMd is the sculptural practice of Dominic van der Merwe.
Blending a background of industrial design with material intuition, Dominic creates site-specific artworks that bring texture, stillness and movement to architectural spaces. Each piece begins with a conversation and ends in a form shaped by light, space, and story.
The Bespoke Process
-
Discovery
We begin with your space — the story, the feeling, the vision.
-
Design Proposal
Concept drawings, scale models, and material studies are shared for feedback and approval.
-
Fabrication and Installation
Depending on scale and complexity, works are handcrafted locally or produced in collaboration with trusted fabrication partners, and delivered ready for installation.
