Amazing stone
Stone, it’s what our planet is made of.
There is an endless supply of it.
It lasts forever.
It’s incredibly strong.
And it’s pleasing to the eye.
Amazing stone.

An office loft
A timber framed attic space can create such a charming room.
It’s a shame that so many timber frame companies focus on “grand… on huge… on sweeping… massive… and barn like” and ignore the potential of creating intimate spaces.
(BTW… I designed and built this one)

Cabin art
Can a home be built that would be considered “art”… would this cabin be one of those?
(Art, noun: the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated for their beauty or emotional power).

Get outside! :)
Here’s to your health!
Studies have shown that blood pressure rates drop when people look at a photo of the outdoors.
Imagine how how healthy it must be to go out there.
And so with that in mind, when you build that next home of yours, make sure and create spaces outside that will lure you from the comforts of the interior.

Why not choose a proven design?
The classic farmhouse.
Two centuries later, still so fine.
All she is needs is some attention, and a loving family.
I guess the same holds true for all of us.

A handmade house is more than a home (as if that wasn’t enough). It’s also a way of life.
I do appreciate those moments in life where the only sound heard is that of birds singing.
