Normally tenons are hidden in mortises, but when the tenon passes entirely through the piece it is joining, it is called a through tenon. Through tenons are more time-consuming to cut, and are one of the characteristics of Arts & Crafts and Mission style furniture. We like to think of through tenons as "visible joinery" and a demonstration of the craftsperson's skill. © Carolina Timberworks

This existing home was originally built circa 1919, and was ready for a major renovation. As was characteristic of the period in which the home was built, the existing spaces were small and closed in. The design concept included removing walls on first floor for a thoroughly updated and open living / dining / kitchen space, as well as creating a new first floor powder room and entry. Great care was taken to preserve and embrace original period details, including the wood doors and hardware (which were all refinished and reused), the existing stairs (also refinished), and an existing brick pier was exposed to restore some of the home’s inherent charm. The existing wood flooring was also refinished to retain the original details and character. This photo highlights some the home's original hardware that was reutilized. Photo Credit: Steve Dolinsky
