Mallory Entry

The Homeowner and I began a long relationship with this Turret. He didn’t like the architect’s plans, and asked me to redesign the exterior using stone. I did, and from the sills below the windows to the finial, he accepted my design, including the copper roof (done by others). I worked with the architect to make sure it would be done up to snuff, and here it is, twenty years later, and it is still in good shape. I will be visiting the clients this spring to take updated shots and will add them to this post when I do.

 

The clients were asked to come up with quotes for each of the lintel panels, and to provide an image to go along with each quote. The result is as it was intended to be- very personal.

When we were installing the sills and lintels it became apparent that the turret was not actually round. A great deal of energy and time was spent carefully back-cutting the pieces to fit the situation. Cussing ensued. Much.

 

I am really looking forward to visiting these clients again. We’ve got a couple decades of work and life to share.
