The design itself was Prowell’s attempt to capture a sense of the lush Hawaiian foliage. The stone columns flanking the gates are embedded with an accompanying design and backed with blue figured glass. Backlit with ImageLux LED lighting.

Think Hawaii. The natural grasses and lush foliage of reeds and tropical palms and the solution, naturally, was Driveway Gate style #220.

IN PROGRESS

Know the fundamentals of the historically known joinery techniques by twenty. Expand on them throughout that decade and when you’re thirty, Ben’s age in this photo, you have a repertoire of innovations–personal discoveries. At your disposal and all of them clamoring to be brought off the bench, to be called upon for those pieces of work where the fundamentals are just not good enough.

Scribing a fit. When finish carpenters install a cabinet to a wavy wall, they’ll use a compass to mirror the contours of the wall onto the cabinet trim. Another means is a scribing board, shown below. One edge holds a pencil lead seated into a cove and taped such that it is perfectly aligned to the edge of the chamfered board.

A visual depth is accomplished by carving a shadow line at the secondary flush joints.

The illusion of random chaos.
And yet each component is consciously assigned. Contributing, one hopes, to the overall schematic.

One of four accompanying sconces that loosely mimic the general lines of the primary gates.

The sconces are back-lighted with custom-sized Imagilux panels. A perimeter of LED bulbs illuminating a clear poly-carbonate panels for an even spread of illumination across the panel. Between the back of the wood sconces and the lighting is 1/4″ tempered glass.
