ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS

In collaboration with architects, designers, millwork companies, and furniture manufacturers, I have served the needs of a unique client list for thirty years. I have contributed to prestigious restoration projects as well as new commercial and residential construction. My expertise includes millwork that requires geometric accuracy such as Ionic volutes, compound radius handrails, or patterns for metal casting. I also carve elements enhanced by an interpretive approach such as floral garlands, acanthus foliage and figurative sculpture.


Shown below are only a few examples of each element:
