About this project
These white oak curved transoms are a masterful example of heritage architectural restoration, utilizing advanced bent lamination techniques to faithfully recreate the original design. Through the use of a vacuum press, the wood is carefully shaped to form graceful curves, ensuring both strength and precision. Each transom is meticulously crafted with custom molding profiles, specifically designed to match the existing 100- year-old details, preserving the character and authenticity of the original architecture.
The natural beauty of the white oak, with its rich grain and warm tones, adds a timeless elegance to the space, while the innovative restoration techniques highlight the delicate balance between tradition and modern craftsmanship. This project is a tribute to the craftsmanship of the past, carefully restored for future generations to enjoy.
