The designers of this home brought us a real challenge; to build a unsupported curved stair that looks like stacked lumber. We believe this solid oak curved stair meets that challenge. LED lighting adds a modern touch to a rustic project. The widening effect at the bottom of the stair creates a welcoming impression. Our innovative design creates a look that floats on air.

This railing uses a beautiful manufactured picket with our hand forged cap rail which we produce in house. It has a hand rolled volute at the bottom. The size of the cap rail measures 3/4" x 2". We can produce this cap rail for your specific project, even if you already have a fabricator, or we can build the entire railing for you. The posts are 1 1/4" square and the pickets measure 9/16" square. The finish on this railing is a natural iron finish with a clear sealer.

Hand forged Iron Railing and decorative Iron in various geometric patterns gives this Southern California Luxury home a custom crafted look throughout. Iron work in a home has traditionally been used in Spanish or Tuscan style homes. In this home, Interior Designer Rebecca Robeson designed modern, geometric shaped to transition between rooms giving it a new twist on Iron for the home. Custom welders followed Rebeccas plans meticulously in order to keep the lines clean and sophisticated for a seamless design element in this home. For continuity, all staircases and railings share similar geometric and linear lines while none is exactly the same.

One of the most commanding features of this rebuilt WWII era house is a glass curtain wall opening to sweeping views. Exposed structural steel allowed the exterior walls of the residence to be a remarkable 55% glass while exceeding the Washington State Energy Code. A glass skylight and window walls bisect the house to create a stair core that brings natural daylight into the interiors and serves as the spine, and light-filled soul of the house.
