Building Your First Home

After the devastation of the Christchurch earthquake and a shortage of housing in Auckland we are trying to design an affordable post and beam home for the urban enviroment with the idea of keeping the cost's affordable so that people can build there dream home right away. What do people want, do you like big exposed timbers showing how the house is being held together?

HI Matt,
I'm currently working in Chch, but my experience is in the UK working with oak framing, and design, i am currently working for a new home building company in Chch which is different to my experience back home. I love what your doing and just wondering how big is your company, i see you are making a couple of exposed scissor trusses, which look very cool in the round. do you mill your own timbers including to square? i travel to Queenstown from time to time so maybe i'll swing by to say hi. So i guess i just wanted to get in touch, and introduce myself. anyway all the best to you, loving your work.

Kind regards

Mark
