The steel guardrails are complemented by rough sawn fir panels tied togetherwith steel straps and fasteners. Angled spaces present a design challenge.
I hold the panel in place while Erik tightens the bolts.What to do with leftover rough sawn Douglas fir timbers? Erik created rough-sawn fir in-fill panels for the steel guardrails in the main living space and in the stair tower. The panels, which have the same bandsaw finish as the timbers, blend beautifully with the timber frame and the sleek steel staircases. Collaborating on steel fabrication was Jorgen Harle, Orcas Island Forge.
Spectacular--any new photos to show.
