kevin vanderzel is part cowboy, part architect, part creative entrepreneur.

He serves his local community as an architectural designer and metal fabricator creating handsome furniture, unique architectural elements, and the occasional tiny cabin in the woods to keep life curious.

In 2020, I graduated from California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo with a degree in Architecture. I began my practice in 2018 while still in school and completed projects up and down the coast of California ranging from design and fabrication build-outs for breweries, tiny cabins, and oversized barn doors.

I now uses my creativity to serve my small beach community as CAYUCOS METALWORKS. I am also the founder of SLOWBIRD MATCHA, Cuttabl.co, The Embodied Creator Toolkit, and The Imperfectionist Workshop where I helps ambitious creatives get out of their heads and into their bodies so that they can express themselves with deeper clarity, confidence, and connection.
