24' x 36' Barn built as Phase I of a
two phase project.  The barn has 2
parking spaces and a light filled
staircase on the first floor.  The
second floor functions as a two
bedroom apartment with a sleeping
loft above.  This is the anchor for the
main house being built in the next
phase.
30' x 36' Barn designed to incorporate living
space above while space for animals and
equipment is given below.  The design
celebrates long views and a flood of natural
light throughout, streaming from the gable
windows and the elongated clerestory
cupola on top.
Traditional Downeast Maine
Barn using Doug Fir to Span
30' on the first floor and topped
off with a beautiful cupola for
ventilation and light.  The large
doors on the front and back
allow an open passage for
moving equipment in and out.
This Design is the
result of business
venture, of creating an
atmosphere of a time
gone by, where quality
of a traditional fashion
houses functions both
great and small.  This
high visibility location
needed a simple yet
elegant form, which
holds true for the site
through the final details.
 All of the design
principles are the same,
no matter what the
project size may be.
A wonderful Douglas Fir barn built in
a serene and remote location.  Many
generations will come to appreciate
the expansive spaces and the quality
of the detailed joinery.  
The barn boasts plenty
of space for an animal
veterinary practice on the
first floor, while the
dormered second floor
will be used as an
in-law apartment.  The
homeowner cut this
frame with a little help
from the pro's.
