Quezada Architecture The rail was custom made by a local steel fabricator in Marin but it is a fairly simple design of horizontal 3/4" steel rods welded to vertical plate for support. We set the verticals in a few feet on either side so that the corners are just the rods. The top rail is flat plate about 4" deep. The steel was then painted a blue grey to match windows.

Quezada Architecture The wood siding is 6" wide tongue and groove redwood with blind nailing and a light stain to protect it from UV as this is the South side of the house. We mitered all the corners so that we did not have verticals to keep it clean and modern. The contractor was definitely not happy while installing as it was tedious but the final look was well worth it.

Quezada Architecture It looks like concrete but it is actually light grey DG (decomposed granite). Love the look but it does track in light grey dust... a problem when you have dark floors.
