One Hat One Hand Expands Fabrication Capabilities with Acquisition of DEKA Fab

Longtime CODAworx member One Hat One Hand (OHOH) has announced a major strategic expansion with its 2025 acquisition of DEKA Fabrication, significantly enhancing the studio’s millwork and metal fabrication capabilities. The move positions OHOH to take on an even broader range of complex architectural, artistic, and experiential projects—further strengthening its role as a creative powerhouse in the public art and fabrication landscape.

As part of the transition, DEKA’s Account Services will now be led by Alex MacDonald, an industry veteran known for managing sophisticated build and fabrication projects across multiple sectors. MacDonald’s leadership brings seasoned expertise to OHOH’s growing team, ensuring seamless coordination from concept to installation.

The acquisition marks a meaningful milestone in OHOH’s ongoing commitment to craft, innovation, and integrated fabrication. By absorbing DEKA’s specialized capabilities, the studio can now offer clients expanded options in precision metalwork, custom millwork, and large-scale architectural fabrication—while maintaining the artistic flexibility and collaborative spirit for which OHOH is known.

For artists, designers, and commissioners working at the intersection of creativity and buildability, OHOH’s expanded toolkit promises new possibilities. With DEKA Fab now part of the family, One Hat One Hand is stepping confidently into its next chapter of creative production.
