Wonderful Wood Portfolio -- Custom Banister


The pictures below are of a banister I built for a former co worker.  The main criteria for this job (and I am not making this up) was to make it weird.  It had to be functional, but weird was top on the list.  After some thought and a few initial drawings, this is how it ended up.  I would not want to have to negotiate these steps in an altered state of conciousness.

This was my part of the job, to deliver and install the bannister, unfinished except for two coats of sanding sealer.  The mural on the wall is a woman's face and hair, with the hair colored like a rainbow.

This is the bannister after the airbrush artist got through with it.  Notice the colors are picked up from the wall and the stair risers.  These pictures were supplied to me by the owner.
