2007 Builder’s Choice Winner: Decohouse, Lake Butler Sound

Simplicity was the imperative in designing the railing for this 8,818-square-foot art deco home, according to architect Mark Nasrallah. The rail’s clean, curvilinear motif perfectly complements the bold, geometric elevation of the Floridian house.

Constructed from stainless steel—for its durability as well as its aesthetic quality—the railing subtly accents both the silver casing on the doors and the horizontal banding around the house.

The result: An ordinarily unassuming detail of the home becomes a 1930s-inspired focal point.
