Custom Home - Arts & Crafts style timber frame

Front entry in a custom post & beam timber-framed home is a symphony of stained glass and mahogany. 34 panels with 1,400 pieces of glass to depict a blooming magnolia tree branching to fill the transom and sidelights. Each panel has a three-quarter-inch copper frame, and each individual piece of glass is outlined in copper foil. To meet energy-conscious building codes for new construction, a layer of clear glass insulates the exterior of the stained glass.
