Under the hood At Baker Street

Sometimes, a project comes along that challenges me in almost every way. That's when things get really exciting! I do enjoy being asked to dream up new things that have never been seen, or to reimagine artifacts that exist, and give them new life.

The most difficult part of this project was getting the coated steel bands that make up the art piece to stand vertically over their entire eleven-foot length, without twisting.

My favorite part of the project, as always, was hitting the switch at the end and watching everything light up. There's nothing like that moment, when it all just works,..

Under the hood in Mill Valley

My introduction to this enormous project was designing, fabricating, and installing the main staircase in the 40-foot-high atrium of the house. The staircase connects three floors, and appears to "float" in midair, especially where it passes the large picture windows that look out onto the property.

The most difficult part of this project was actually getting the pieces of staircase into the house! We lifted them 150 feet up a hill, up on to the lowest back deck, then into the house. From the bottom floor, we used chain hoists to lift the sections into place so we could bolt them securely.

My favorite part of the project was putting on the handrails. I welded all of them on, in a single afternoon, and I really enjoyed how solid they felt.
