Designer – Ken Halford
Ken Holford and Harry Hum have been restoring their 1930′s San Francisco home for the last 9 years. After several door and window projects with Wooden Window, they proposed their most challenging job yet – the design and fabrication of a 10′ wide picture window that integrated an Art Deco design the couple had seen as a railing in another nearby neighborhood. The couple’s original design posed structural concerns so Wooden Window collaborated with Marvin and the clients through 8 rounds of revision until as the homeowner/designer put it, “we arrived at a design with which I was pleased and that Marvin and Wooden Window were comfortable building.” The result was a stunning work of art and craftsmanship that exists as the focal point of their deco facade. Wooden Window, Inc. also won a Northern California NARI award for this project.
The next step is the replacement of a different window with French doors that will open to a step-out balcony.“The renovation is a continual work in progress and we’ll continue to work with Wooden Window.”
Their follow up is really good. – Jan 31 2011 in Piedmont CA
