The Salt Box style home was widely found in New England during the late 17th century.
The Quincy is a crew favorite to build due to its distinctive shape. Characterized by a long, sloping roof that resembles a salt box, it was designed to maximize space and withstand harsh weather conditions.
These homes were often built by early American colonists using local materials, reflecting the practical needs and functional soulutions of their time and of ours.
This style has since become a charming representation of America's colonial architectural heritage.
As with all of our models, the Quincy Saltbox can easily be scaled, in 12'x12' modular units, to suit any space requirement.
The High Posted Cape is right at home, wherever that may be.
Whether nestled along a serene coastline or, like the first frame we built, in the Potomac Highlands of West Virginia.
This traditional time tested design takes the Salt Box and raises the rear principal posts to the same height as the front posts.
Affordably & effectively providing more usable floor space.
This architectural style features, sturdy posts that elevate the structure, allowing for expansive views of the surrounding landscape.
As with all of our frames, the exposed timbers and open spaces create a warm, inviting atmosphere, while large windows let in natural light, connecting the indoors with the tranquil outdoors.
The origins of the King Post truss design can be traced back to ancient timber framing techniques, widely used in Europe, particularly during the medieval period.
Craftsmen sought to create strong, yet lightweight structures that could support larger roofs and spans without the need for excessive materials.
A king post truss is a structural frame that allows for larger spans between supports, making it ideal for creating open spaces in buildings.
This design provides a visually appealing aesthetic that showcases the beauty & strength of our precision joinery.
As with all of our structures, it combines functionality with traditional craftsmanship.
