We are NatureMaker®
Not merely artificial trees, a NatureMaker tree is a bold synthesis of masterful engineering and one-of-a-kind nature tree sculpture. We prefer not to call these "fake trees" as they are life-size and true to the minutest detail of branch and bark. NatureMaker’s hand sculpted replica trees are the original and only “Steel Art Trees.” Whether a monumental banyan whose arching branches and spreading roots offer a nesting place for children’s imaginations in a library, or a six-story oak tree stimulating awe in a hotel lobby, or artificial palm trees in a large tropical atrium, NatureMaker trees have engendered an entirely new “experience” of Nature in exhibit design and themed environments.
Artisans and Engineers
NatureMaker co-founders, the late Bennett Abrams, an ecological artist and sculptor, and Gary Hanick developed and perfected the techniques used to build what they have dubbed their “Steel Art Trees”. These arboreal creations have become a unique art form, and the company’s designers, artisans and engineers assist with every aspect of interior landscaping with NatureMaker Steel Art Trees.
Our indoor trees, ranging from oak trees to indoor palm trees, can be integrated into any space, from elegant residential interiors to hotel lobbies and museum and tradeshow exhibit design. Our metal trees are handcrafted to architectural specifications, NatureMaker trees have emerged as major design elements at prestigious resorts, casinos, retailers, museums, libraries, zoos, nature centers, commercial buildings, theme park design, hotels and residences. Each tree, perfectly balanced and magnificently detailed, stands as a one-of-a-kind ode to nature.
These guys were great to work with. We wish they could
come back to visit it. We love the tree!!Dorrie Hipschman
