ID Sculpture

At ID Sculpture, the company's obsession with play and experiential learning has its roots in the outdoor world. Founder Ian Glas developed a deep passion for rock climbing at an early age and climbed like it was his job for over a decade. When sending routes didn't pay the bills, Ian took his skill and knowledge to a then fledgling climbing-wall i... ndustry. Dissatisfied with the industry standard plywood and steel fabrication methods, Ian and a small group of like-minded makers, climbers, and inventors set about developing a more flexible design and fabrication system. When Ian and company hit upon a sculptable cementitious coating that could be applied to a contoured structural armature, they knew they were really on to something big. In 2005, Ian founded Integrated Design Solutions, which quickly evolved into the company the company is today, ID Sculpture. The company has assembled a team of talented designers and craftsmen who employ a sophisticated quiver of tools to bring play and art together. True to the company's roots, the company's designs, aesthetic sensibilities, and the smallest details of the company's finished textures are inspired by nature. The company is committed to creating custom interactive sculptures and environments that set the stage for imaginative play and foster generation-spanning interactions. And the company is always striving to capture that sense of freedom and wonder that inspired Ian Glas's passion nearly three decades ago when he first laid hands on stone and climbed. The company proudly design and build in the company's Rocky Mountain home of Gunnison, Colorado.Read More
