This door was designed and commissioned by Alterstudio Architects for a new house.  The entire residence is low-key, modern, and solid.

Molly needed a TV cabinet that also housed the stereo speakers, DVD player, and cable box.  We both wanted the speakers contained, so they were integrated into the cabinet behind white speaker grille cloth.  The handles are cocobolo wood with bronze stand-offs by Hawkeye.

International architecture firm Gensler opened a new office in Austin, TX at the W Hotel.  I met Lance Yeary of Gensler at the East Austin Studio Tour in 2010, where he saw a massive walnut slab at my shop.  His firm immediately commissioned this table.  The only drawback was that the 15 foot long slab would not fit in their feight elevator.  Lance said, no...

Thanks to the wonderful architects at Alterstudio who designed this kitchen, I was fortunate to be recommended for this project as cabinetmaker.  Normally I do not provide counter tops and finish hardware, but because of the tightly nested design, I engineered and supervised the fabrication and installation of all stone & stainless steel counter tops/backsplash and stainless finish hardware.

Curved kiln cast panels provide privacy for a small party room in this restaurant. 

Kiln cast plate glass in a forged steel armature serve as privacy screen and signage for this restaurant.

The fused glass in the chandelier is reminiscent of cacao pods for this chocolate inspired restaurant.
