Handcrafted Timber Frame Homes

"Timber Frame” is beautiful and an inspiring method of construction that has stood the test of time in many countries throughout the world. Timber frame homes are handcrafted in a style that proudly reveals its support structure as a mixture of art and engineering. Posts join to beams by the use of tenons and oak pegs. Timber trusses support vaulted ceilings. Exposed wood knee braces give rigidity and functional beauty to the entire structure.
Timber Frame Construction Timber frame construction begins with a well thought out design, and a set of drawings that express that design clearly. The layout and cutting of the timber frame parts are done in a workshop environment. The goal of the timber framer is the creation of a timber structure that exhibits precision, strength, and beauty. A variety of wood species, surface textures and wood finishes can be used to create a special look. Timber frame homes easily meet modern energy saving standards. They match effectively with structural insulated panels, which are known for their warmth and rigidity.
