Our client for this project approached us to create a heavy timber feature truss set for their new build on their stunning plot of land in Merriwa.
Our client for this project approached us to create a heavy timber feature truss set for their new build on their stunning plot of land in Merriwa.
The clients on this project contacted us after seeing one of our projects in a nearby village. They fell in love with the timber, joinery and craftsmanship and were set on incorporating something similar into their proposed new gallery. We introduced the clients and their builder Preston and Sons, to one of our preferred building designers Longhouse Homes.
When our client decided to build a new family home on their sugar cane plantation in Mackay in northern Queensland they knew they needed something that would stand up to the elements. The building would need to be strong enough to withstand cyclones, termites the size of small cats and the monsoonal rains that hit each wet season.
Double Post Frame with vertical King and Queen posts! Now that’s a mouthful, but the result is an impressive truss frame that is the architectural centrepiece of what was a quite complex home build in Picton, NSW.
This project involved handcrafting a set of traditional timber trusses and outdoor post and beam framing for a prestigious country holiday home set high on a ridgeline overlooking the glorious Southern Highlands.
