Dissimilar Metal Design (DMD) is an architectural metals company based in Silverdale, Washington, founded by Principal Mark Quinlan. DMD’s roots trace to 1981 with the creation and selling of metal furniture and sculpture commissioning for private collectors. Quinlan has spent the past 30 years dedicating himself to innovating weatherization techniques of metals such as copper, bronze, aluminum stainless steel and zinc Patinas.

Fueled by demand in Korea and Northern Europe, DMD expanded its operations with a new metal weatherization factory in 2006. They specialize in the creation of custom built decorative metal works, and the distribution of architectural panels.

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Dissimilarmetaldesign", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it is the name of a company (Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Dissimilar Metal Design). If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. ukexpat (talk) 19:56, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

Hello, TheArtOfRust. You have new messages at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Help_desk#Review_of_Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation.2FDissimilar_Metal_Design.

Incidentally, I also came to tell you about the username issue, but someone beat me to it. Dissimilarmetaldesign is not allowed as a username, as it's the name of a group of people and not of a person. Wikipedia accounts are specific to a single person only, so anything implying shared/team usage is verbotten. I believe you can still do something like "Erica at Dissimilarmetaldesign" or similar, or "LuckyPup Dissimilarmetaldesign", anything that provides some name or nickname showing that you're one individual.
