Twist Gate architectural metalwork by Alan Williams

About the work

As you walk past the changing angles, the twisted steel bars produce an optical effect, with the forms appearing to shift and twist.

The gate combines traditional forged construction with a contemporary sculptural quality.

Materials and construction

Forged from 50 mm × 10 mm flat bar, the gate is entirely hand riveted and galvanised to provide long-lasting protection outdoors.
