This forged steel railing wraps around the grand entry stair.

The interlocking forged steel design of this entry gate echoes ancient Celtic symbols of well-being and honors the owner's Irish ancestry.

This main entry gate for a large hilltop property in west Austin draws on botanical forms while reflecting the movement of water from nearby Lake Austin.

Here is a cusotm car retreat I built for a homeowner who needed another spot to park in.  The design matched the existing fence ornament in the front of the home. A beautiful copper roof tops the structure.

This fence, pedestrian gate, and sliding driveway gate are a part of my house and shop.  I live across the street form a busy convenient store, and was looking to have a as much privacy as possible and to eliminate a lot of the sound.  Mission accomplished. 

This lamp was fabricated for the Guild's exhibit at the Perry Mansion, and is a continuation of the Bordello Lamp series that I have been working on for about 10 years.  The main feature that qualifies the lamp to be a part of the series is the shade.  Initially the lamps shades had colored and textured paper, but now, through a collaboration with glass artist Carlyn Ray, we have successfully blown glass into the shades.

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.

Molly is a fond collector of all the arts, including and especially music.  She wanted open and enclosed shelves for her records, CD's, and stereo equipment.  Molly's house was built in the 1950's and has a luxurious, minimalist Hollywood atmosphere.  The stereo should be easy to use, for parties, private listening, or any occassion.  Witht the design, I tried to strike a balance between a cabinet that blended in to the house and called just enough attention to itself.

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.
