The story
Ironpeak's machines are the architecture. The stand's job was to hold them safely, light them dramatically and stay out of the way.
Objective
Show three production machines under live operation with certified load and safety clearances.
Solution
A visible black steel frame declares the engineering rather than concealing it. Machine positions were fixed early against hall floor loading limits, and service routes for power, air and extraction were coordinated into the deck before any cladding was designed.
