Joinery Structures
Carpenter in Oakland, CA
Master builder Paul Discoe established Joinery Structures in 1988 after returning from a five year stint as a joinery carpenter studying Buddhist temple design and construction in Japan. Utilizing traditional Asian timber-frame building processes, Joinery Structures' design assistance begins with the visualization and siting of customer's projects. Once under construction, a Joinery Structures toriyo (master builder) guides the range of the unprocessed materials most appropriate for the job and then supervises each detailed step through to final completion.
