Project Story

Moca’s storefront called for custom metalwork across the street-facing windows and entry. The pattern had to fit the openings and work alongside the existing stone, brick, and glass.

Breuder handled design, hand forging, fabrication, and installation. The white vine pattern continues across the facade and into the arched entrance panel.

The wide views show the full frontage; closer photographs show how the curves and frames meet the stonework. Together they document a storefront metalwork project from street scale to individual details.
