Every Timber Frame Home Has a Story

And every story begins with a journey. And most journeys do not follow a straight linear path, but rather take many twists and turns as we move forward, always learning and discovering. With regards to using Artistic Timber Framing to create long-lasting beauty, your journey may include questions like:

​

  • "How much does Timber Framing cost?"

  • "Will Timber Framing fit my home style?"

  • "Can I add Timbers to my home blueprints?"

  • "Is Timber Framing possible for remodels?"

​

And many more questions. As dedicated Timber Frame Guides, we encourage people to embrace the questions and uncertainties as opportunities! Because there’s a fun, exciting world to discover! Here, you’ll find post and beam history, design, planning expertise, construction tips, Timber Home plans, and a ton of photos for your ideas and inspiration.
