New Framing Projects

Coldmoorholme Cottage

This was a joint project between us and Sadler Traditional, we were asked to produce a contemporary kitchen diner extension that felt open and airy yet was respectful to the existing 16th century house. We designed the frame with no sole plates for a more contemporary feel but used historical details such as diminished principal rafters, jowled posts and heavily cranked collars to give it a simple elegance without it being too fiddly. Cut entirely from oak felled at Ickworth Park near to Bury St. Edmunds it makes a handsome addition to the family home.
