ARTFUL DESIGN

RUGGED MATERIALS

GREEN EFFICIENCY

We design our homes to create dramatic spaces that feel bigger than they are, incorporating unusual shapes, distinctive materials, and hand-crafted mortise and tenon joinery to complement the beauty of the timbers. We tie our builds deeply into their environment, taking into account factors like directional sunlight, landscape options, and the views from your windows and porches. And it’s not just about looks — your air-sealed, super-insulated home will be a functional beauty that can run on a smaller HVAC system, yielding lower utility bills and minimizing your carbon footprint.
