One of a Kind Entrance: Part 1 :Custom Front Doors

One part of a custom home build is designing custom doors and staircases 
down to the "T"!

Here at TCI, we like to design CUSTOM doors because they are just THAT much more special and unique. 

We can draft out the design by drawing exactly what we want the door to look like ...


Take a look at this line drawing in comparison with the IN-PROGRESS construction shot
of our builds in Newman Village in Frisco.


Three TIPS to custom door design:
1. Repetitive Designs - This helps to give the door some "rhythm"
2. Geometric Shapes - Doors with geometric patterns become less busy
3. Effective Light Passage - Leave enough glass through the iron design for an ample amount of light to pass through.

For a more intricate design, check out this custom door below
in a new build in Starwood!

Stay tuned for custom STAIR RAIL designs next!


Look Beyond the Curly-Q Iron Front Door

We have somehow developed this niche of helping clients move away from old world ... to soft contemporary... And that means 
STARTING WITH THE EXTERIOR!

We like to look past the curves to create classic design in iron. We have a client in Dallas that we are designing a custom front door for. And it has been such a fun experience!

We started off with this concept image -- 

By sketching out a few designs, we were able to combine the vision we had with the concept image...

 And come up with this more technical, detailed design!

In order to get the ball rolling with this unique, NON-CURLY, iron design, we took a trip to Entrada to see what we could create.

We were able to see how these doors will be created and what details will go into the process.

The possibilities are endless when it comes to custom ironwork ... but the choice is yours whether you let us take it to the next level and straighten out the lines on that design!!

What are your thoughts?! Ready to step out!?
