Conference Table


 The law can be a big place that requires sincere conversations to come to amicable conclusions.  A well-established law firm needed more room for talk.  Carl built a conference table approximately 17 feet long by 4 feet wide from a local Torrey Pine Tree in Del Mar that came of age and was forced to be cut down.  San Diego, 2023

Before and After

Escondido home at the base of Daley Ranch was in need of a new kitchen.  Refrigerator was relocated for greater amounts of counter space and functionality.  Knotty Alder was used to build the custom cabinets, granite counter tops also that all provided this horse property with the ranch look that gave the cowgirl-of-the-house pure happiness.   2014

Custom Wine Closet - Providing solutions where there may seem none...




Client had a closet outside the kitchen area that they wanted to utilize for something other than hanging coats. Carl transformed the area by designing a wine closet made of Honduras Mahogany with Castle Stone. Carl designed and hand-carved the grapes and grape leaves. A wonderful upgrade to an area that was not utilized to ones full enjoyment....It holds over 50 bottles of the client's finest. Olivenhain CA 2007 (double click for close-up)

Quality Craftsmanship...There Are No Exceptions...


Custom Banister


During a renovation of a 80-year-old beach cottage in Cardiff-By-The-Sea, Carl discovered the wood inside portions of the walls were still worthy of use. Being an expert-level carpenter, Carl took the wood, refurbished it and created a hand-crafted banister stairway with a reverse layout. 2005
