Arts and Crafts bar
This is a small overflow bar situated on a balcony overlooking a large greatroom. the main bar is on the lower level. We havn't finished designing it yet. This is one of ten different pieces I'm doing for this house. All of the cabinetry and millwork is being done in arts and crafts style. I designed this after a picture given me by the homeowner. It will be built of cherry with a natural finish to allow natural aging. The bar top and counter will be soapstone. The job begins tomorrow, but I've been working on the individual designs for a month or so. By the way, this is the first time I've actually been paid for eCab design work I'll post some pics as the pieces are completed.

Thanks guys......it was nice to get paid for all the hours I've put into this job. Brian, I guess you see a lot of this style of woodwork in So. Cal. Down here in the south, we use a lot of mouldings and details, but as you said, the \"clean lines\" of the arts and crafts is what makes this style so beautiful. I'm really gonna enjoy this job. Maybe the best part is the clear finish..........no 5,6,7 step finish......just two coats of Krystal......

Rick.......we're breaking tradition.......most all the cabinetry is american cherry, ecxcept for one vanity, and the basement bar, which are mahagony. These are the homeowners choices. All of the interior trim is also cherry, floors are reclaimed chestnut.....staircases are mahagony.......woodworkers heaven ! Another shop did the kitchen, I'm doing all the bookcases, bars, and vanities.
