Our 18x24 ‘Harraseeket’ timber frame, with a lower level and side shed, provided a surprising amount of space for a workshop and storage! If you like DIY work this a great way to get a jump on a new building. ❤️

Incorporating different wood species requires care

Incorporating different wood species requires careful consideration to ensure a cohesive and aesthetically pleasing result. Douglas fir doors, pine shiplap walls, and rustic Caribbean pine flooring bring varying grain patterns, textures and colors to this barn adding layers of interest and depth to the space.

The mirror hanging over the light fixture on a wooden peg is a nice touch. Love the shadows it creates.

Warmth, rustic charm and a touch of simple eleganc

Warmth, rustic charm and a touch of simple elegance are the hallmarks found in this barn-home's kitchen. Elements include open shelving, a slate farmhouse sink, exposed timbers, natural stone countertops and a small sliding barn door over the refrigerator. Together this space exudes the charm of a traditional barn while offering modern functionality. 💖 📸 Spencer Drake

"Math Works" (Quote from our Lead Timber Framer, Jamie).
The computations to hand craft this complex valley rafter were perfect. 💯 % mortise and tenon joinery...no steel or nail connectors. "Just like it grew right here". Raising this part of the timber frame before Monday's solar eclipse made the day twice as special for us.❤ #timberframe #timberframer #timberframedesign #timberframeconstruction #timberframejoinery #timberframeraising #timberframebarn #mainebarn #barnsofinstagram #mainebuilder #madeinmaine #craftsmanship #keepcraftalive #timberframeraising #mortiseandtenon #postandbeam

Our standard 26x36 Winslow timber frame formed the basis for this barn. Adding a cupola, cross gables, a front porch, upgraded window package and sliding doors made this barn project unique. Storage on the lower level and family space in the loft. ❤ 📸 @jeffrobertsimaging #barn #barndesign #barnbuilder #barnlife #mainebarn #mainearchitecture #mainebuilder #newenglandbarns #mainedesign #designbuild #timberframebarn #timberframe #newenglandbarn #custombuilder #timberframedesign #postandbeam #barnsofinstagram #housesandbarns #housesandbarnsbyjohnlibby #lakesidebarnhbjl
