inspired by the G&G cloud-lift design, I made these from a plan in a woodworking magazine a few years ago. Unfortunately, the dimensions were incorrect so it took much longer than i had planned because I cut all my wood according to the plan. It's made out of hickory, Jatoba and cherry.

These Green and Green inspired end tables are made from Cherry and Hickory with masaranduba pegs. The top has a piece of Marble inset.

This cabinet was made for our walk-in closet. It's made with melamine and has alder banding. The doors are made of alder and hickory. The doors were inspired by G&G's cloud lift design. It has 6 deep, full extension drawers and adjustable shelves. I should have taken a picture before it was...

This summer I completed this full length walnut tilting mirror for my wife Tamara. This was supposed to be a birthday gift, but you know how that goes (her birthday is in March). For the frame and base I used some figured walnut and use some scraps of wenge with threaded brass for the...

Hello fellow LJ'ers. Just delivered these three bar stools to a semi-local customer. A custom detail was added (note the Cloud Lift on the lower stretchers). The client was very happy, and the celebratory drinks were flowing freely. At the risk of a self-indulgent plug, if you would like to...

We're outfitting our summer home with a Green and Green's cloud lift design theme. This is the latest project made of Alder rails and Stiles and hickory panels. The pegs are Ebony stained Massaranduba. Have you ever had "one of those projects" where nothing went right. This project, while...

A modified Greene and Greene - themed bookshelf. I like the G&G style a lot-the workload not so much. I think people, when getting on their G&G kick, often forget that these things were made by these incredible craftsmen for people who were stinking rich. And as such, even the smallest pieces...

I have a blog series (it's very long winded, you have been warned) on building this from the initial design to the final stages. I consider this "my own" design given that I did design it, but most of the details are obviously directly inspired by various G&G pieces. It's made from Peruvian...

This bed was inspired by G&G cloud-lift design. I struggled with the design and got some good feedback from LJ's. Sorry the pics didn't come out well. It's made with walnut, ebony and leaded glass. The leaded glass matches the entrance door to the bedroom at a cabin. It's finished with...
