METAL Nominated for 2014 Washtenaw Indie Awards

METAL is proud to have been nominated for The Washtenaw Soul Award, one of the four 2014 Think Local First Indie Awards. The Washtenaw Soul Award is awarded to a business that represents the unique spirit of Washtenaw County by celebrating diversity, creativity, is confident in their individuality and supports their community.

Here at METAL, we firmly believe that we would not be here without the support and warmth from the local community, which is why we often strive to host and be involved with events that are not necessarily related to our usual business operations.

A major building block of our organizational goal is to enhance the community around us; we seize every chance we get to help raise awareness and educate southeastern Michiganders about important local issues, and we value collaboration with local firms and artists.

We would like to thank all of you who voted for us, as well as all of our supporters over the past three years!

"METAL's rustic quality, well branded message and vertical design made them stand out in an unpretentious way. We were able to clearly see their story from the display only, and the open, retail feel enveloped you in the industrial space with an extremely playful use of volume."
- Alison Kennedy, IIDA (Booz Allen Hamilton)
