WATCH OUR CREW BUILD A CABIN

HOME BASICS

The cabin is a modest-sized timber frame with a first floor master suite and a one bedroom loft.

Like all of our homes, there are many flexible options.

Square footage can be added by expanding the great room or entries. The loft can be converted to house two bedrooms. The exterior porches and roofs can all be heavily customized to match your taste and site characteristics.

THE TIMBER FRAME

The cabin’s interior flows from a primary covered entry into a galley kitchen with an island facing the great room and dining area. Walk around the corner, past a guest bathroom to enter the master suite.

A large four-post timber bent sits between the kitchen and the great room, supporting the loft above. The kitchen ceiling is open to reveal the floor joists above.

The great room ceiling is highlited by two high-collar, braced trusses. Tongue and groove ceiling choices can add contrast to the architecture.

The upstairs loft is detailed with joinery especially at the upper portion of the bent facing the great room.

From this bent, running back over the loft are a number of connecting purlins tied in to a second bent (at the entry to the guest bedroom) and continue into the guest suite. Shed and/or gable dormers add detail to the multi-pitched ceiling and offer views and light.

Our standard for interior timbers is Eastern White Pine which can be finished in a variety of tones.

The cabin is capable of achieving net zero standards.

EXTERIOR ELEMENTS

Outside, the cabin is a low profile timber frame with traditional design elements. Its exterior features make it suited for integration into high trees, mountains, or a suburban neighborhood.

The primary mass of this timber frame home is structured under a traditional gable roof. A combination of shed and gable dormers add windows to the second floor loft and frame out multiple entries and outdoor areas.

The exterior porches are designed to encorporate ground-level outdoor use — perfect for a nearby firepit or hosting backyard parties. Porches can be framed in different styles with or without stone accents. Our standard exterior timber material is cedar but is dependent on your location.
