For architects and the trade

Designed to specification.

18th Grain designs and produces course furnishings, not catalogue golf products. When architects and their clients need markers, signage, and commemorative pieces that hold up to the design intent of the course, this is where that work happens.

Working with architects

Integrated into your design process.

01

Specification

We provide a specification package with material samples, technical drawings, dimensional ranges, and finish options. The package is designed to drop into your documentation set without revision.

02

Collaboration

We work directly from your site plans and design intent. Materials and form are resolved through conversation, not a catalogue. If your course has a specific landscape character or architectural language, we design to it.

03

Delivery

We manage production, quality control, and delivery. You receive finished pieces ready for installation. We coordinate directly with the superintendent or site team on timing.

Management companies

One property at a time.

We understand that management companies operate at portfolio scale. Our approach is intentionally different: start with one flagship property.

A single successful commission establishes what the studio can produce for your brand. It creates a reference point for other properties in the portfolio to evaluate, adapt, and build from. We are not asking for a portfolio commitment. We are asking you to consider one course.

Approach
One property, fully commissioned
Process
Consultation, design, production, delivery
Timeline
Determined on a project basis
Reference
Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club. Course signage. Still installed.

Every commission is designed and produced in-house, from material selection through to finishing. That process is grounded in Benjamin McLaughlin's training in industrial design at Emily Carr University of Art + Design and fifteen years of practice in commissioned furniture and objects.
