John and Brent found a metal craftsman extraordinaire in Sacramento’s own Phill Evans. His hand-sculpted gates and railings punctuate the community with proud images of the Tribe’s ancestral heritage and life in Golden California. His artistry helps give each home its one-of-a-kind appearance, while tying the village together as a coherent whole. He designs with copper, bronze, steel and stone to evoke music, dance, light and spirit.

The village is a stunning success, filling the builder and designer with pride and providing the people who live there with a unique environment to honor their past and celebrate the possibilities of their future.
