Architectural Works

My work ranges from doors, paneling, and custom profiles to gilded frames and one-of-a-kind furniture. Each project starts with the space, the materials, and what you need the piece to do.

Custom Doors

Each door is made to suit its opening and the surrounding woodwork. Wood selection, panel layout, profiles, and hardware are worked through together. The sapele and walnut doors shown here are examples.

Paneling & Wainscoting

Raised-panel wainscoting.
