Modern makers have interpreted the Greene and Greene style in their own furniture. While not intended to be faithful reproductions, these two pieces include many of the classic elements. In author Gary Rogowski's sideboard (left), he reinterprets the cloud lift and long grooves, and adds a fresh Japanese touch: a playful ginkgo-leaf inlay. Darrell Peart also borrowed from Japan, from temple architecture in this case, for the bottom-heavy legs of his chest of drawers (below). His stylized take on Greene and Greene drawer joinery and his curved adaptation of the cloud lift are also harmonious touches.
