Founded by Martin Harrison, a Scottish-born designer and problem-solver living in Houston.
He's spent more than three decades working where systems and people meet - across energy, technology, design, and hospitality.
The early years were spent in the oil and gas sector, supporting engineering teams and learning the mechanics of how complex operations stay reliable.
That technical grounding led to his first company - one of Scotland's early internet service providers - and opened the door to online business at a time when the web was still taking shape.
From there, he built and managed digital ventures on both sides of the Atlantic, combining systems thinking with design and business development.
Later came design studios, digital agencies, and restaurants - places where creativity, service, and structure had to coexist.
Along the way he started companies, helped others steady theirs, and learned that every industry runs on the same steady fundamentals: clarity, respect, and a willingness to keep learning.
UltraHeavy grew out of that: a lifelong pull toward making sense of things - and leaving behind something useful for the next person.
