the taper on this knee brace prevents an optical illusion that makes it look fat at the top. joinery magic. ✨ #timberframing #design

a little joinery 101. this is the mortise & tenon. it's the poster child of our craft for a reason. #timberframing

timber framing vocab speedrun. how many did you know?

#TimberFraming #Construction #Architecture #BuildingLingo

just a casual day in the shop wrestling a 15-foot, 18x24 beam into an arch. nbd. #woodworking #timberframing

a few seconds of joinery appreciation. the details aren't just details, they're the whole point.

cool little breakdown of how we get a more modern feel. everyone defaults to farmhouse trusses, but we skipped 'em here to keep the view from the loft wide open. it's the stuff you don't build that sometimes makes the biggest difference. #timberframe #design

a reminder of why we do what we do. this pavilion was all about building a place for family. that's the good stuff

ok what's the best wood stain vibe? 1) reddish 2) light/natural 3) dark/dramatic 4) charred. go. #designtrends #timberframe

Which one's your favorite?

#TimberFrame #BespokeDesign #ArchedTruss

breaking down the difference between king, queen, and hammer beam trusses. there's a quiz at the end (not really, but drop your favorite in the replies)

pretty satisfying watching one of our pavilion builds go up this fast. lots of hard work condensed into a few seconds. #timberframe #woodworking #construction

had a lot of fun designing this modern take on a classic western ranch gate. it’s all about making the entrance feel as special as the house itself. #timberframe #architecturaldesign

what do we think of these corbels? a little before/after action on an alaskan house. sometimes the smallest changes make the biggest difference.
