Pine Log Handrail

Here is another picture of the natural, pine log handrail after it has been assembled. The large, white pine posts play an important role in supporting the railing system, but just as significantly they make a big impact as an aesthetic element on a deck.

Pine Branch Handrail

This picture shows parts of a pine branch handrail system prior to being installed.  The large pine timbers on the far left and right will support the rail section in the middle. Mountain Laurel branches with their bark intact form curving balusters for a real rustic look.

Organic Deck Railing

With the pergola, cushioned furniture, potted plants and organic deck railing, the homeowners combined indoor comforts with the natural beauty of the outdoors. Notice how Mountain Laurel branches covered in bark form natural balusters easing the transition from the deck to the landscape.

Wood Deck Handrail

A wood deck handrail completes the rustic look of this timber frame porch, handsomely! The balusters are crafted from Mountain Laurel branches with each section displaying a one-of-a-kind design that draws the eye like a piece of art.

Oklahoma Deck Railing

This Oklahoma deck railing demonstrates the visual impact a decorative railing has on a home’s exterior. Woven Mountain Laurel branches fill each section of the railing as it spans across the full length of the home. Now that’s curb appeal!

Stair Railing Stone Wall

As architectural elements in a log home this stair railing and stone wall work together nicely. In this picture spacious, variegated wood landings connect sections of the staircase as it changes directions winding down each level.

Wood Porch Handrail

The wood porch handrail along with other rustic architectural elements make a fabulous connection with the outdoors. Organic branches covered in bark form natural balusters under an overhead structure featuring timber beams and hefty wood pillars faced with stone at the base.

Handrail Hot Tub Deck

Private, relaxing and inviting best describes the handrail hot tub deck. A hot tub is surrounded by a subtly defined perimeter consisting of a airy and artsy branch railing and comfy built-in benches. Note how a tree is used in the deck as a design element in this naturalistic setting.

Lodge Railing

Under the shady overhead structure of this rustic inspired retreat, the lodge railing stands out like a work of art. A set of horizontal handrails and vertical posts complement the sharp geometric lines of the lodge’s exterior, while free flowing Mountain Laurel balusters create a beautiful break to the overall form.

Timber Frame Porch Railing

Here’s a close up view of the timber frame porch railing seen in the previous post. Intricate details include artistically arranged Mountain Laurel branches covered in their rough reddish-brown bark and a two piece set of western red cedar handrails in a rustic post-to-post railing system.
