Inspiration Station: Railings

While in Western Massachusetts last week, I finally took the time to document the Enzer-Mahlers' gorgeous stairwell railings and towel racks, made from local trees (they live in Montague, Mass.).

The bark is stripped from the tree, which can then be treated—or not, as the Enzer-Mahlers demonstrate with these towel racks and railing leading downstairs:




Totally amazing and beautiful, no? Better Farm's staircase to the second floor would look particularly lovely with a nice black cherry tree or big maple tree branch.
