There’s something about a timber frame home that just creates a sense of warmth and comfort. Intricate joinery, exposed timbers, and high lofted ceilings all work together to create a space that you can be in awe of each and every day.
While timber frame homes all have similar details in the way they are constructed, there are tons of different options and styles you can choose from to create the perfect custom space for you. Check out the timber frame inspiration below to learn more.
A Traditional Timber Frame Treasure
These traditional king post trusses do wonders to make this sitting room stand out. The dark stain used on the circle sawn timbers works to create contrast against the light lofted ceilings, while the classic circle sawn floors add warmth and tie the whole room together. What a perfect space to sit and enjoy the views!
A Modern Twist
While the classic hammer beam truss and metal tie rod add old-world charm to this expansive living room, this timber frame still manages to look sleek and modern. If you’re looking to achieve a more modern look, using light-stained timbers and smooth tongue and groove ceiling paneling is the perfect option. Sliding glass doors and oversized windows also help add an elegant feel to this beautiful space.
Rustic Charm
There are so many wonderful features to love about this space! From the arched chord king post trusses that help draw the eye up to the large stone fireplace and chandeliers, this room truly embraces the rustic charm of a traditional timber frame home. Plus the natural reds and yellows of the circle sawn Douglas fir timbers compliment the warm tones of the rest of the space, making everything feel cohesive.
Cozy Covered Porch
Timber frame accents aren’t just limited to indoors. The king post truss on this covered porch creates the perfect space to kick back, relax, and enjoy the views. We love the oversized stone fireplace that ties the two levels together and mixes perfectly with the timbers and wood siding. What a fun and functional space that creates dimension in this beautiful home!
