About Ben MacKenzie

I am an advocate of thoughtful and purposeful design. With over a decade of combined experience as practicing professional engineers, my brother and I used our experience to launch Veil | engineered shading - offering a first-of-its-kind solution to interior shading system design and construction. Our firm is an extension of our mission and vision - bringing a new approach to what it means to properly design, build, and commission an intelligent shading system in a modern building.
