Traditional Inspirational Creative
At Tabberson Architects, we specialize in designing exceptional timber frame structures that blend timeless craftsmanship with modern innovation. Our expertise spans a variety of building types, ensuring that each project is uniquely tailored to our clients’ visions while harmonizing with the natural environment.
Timber Frame – Digital Fabrication
Embracing cutting-edge technology, our timber frame structures utilize digital fabrication methods to achieve precision and efficiency. Digital fabrication allows us to design and manufacture timber components with exacting accuracy, reducing waste and ensuring a perfect fit during assembly. This modern approach maintains the beauty of traditional timber framing while offering enhanced customization and streamlined construction timelines.
Timber Frame – Hand-cut Craftsmanship
For those who appreciate the artistry of traditional building methods, our hand-cut timber frame structures showcase the skill and dedication of our craftsmen. Using time-honored techniques, each timber is carefully selected and shaped by hand, creating a unique structure imbued with character and authenticity. This approach results in stunning architectural details that celebrate the natural beauty of wood and the legacy of craftsmanship.
Vintage & Reclaimed Timbers & Barns
We are passionate about sustainability and preserving history through our use of vintage and reclaimed timbers. By incorporating materials from old barns, warehouses, and historical structures, we create timber frame structures that tell a story. These reclaimed timbers bring warmth, charm, and a sense of heritage to your project while promoting environmentally responsible building practices.
Mass Timber for Commercial & Residential Projects
Tabberson Architects is at the forefront of designing mass timber structures for both commercial and residential applications. Mass timber utilizes large, solid wood panels for structural components, offering strength comparable to steel and concrete but with a reduced carbon footprint. Our mass timber frame structures provide innovative solutions for modern building needs, combining sustainability with aesthetic appeal. From multi-story commercial buildings to expansive residential homes, mass timber allows for versatile design possibilities and efficient construction.
Standard Structures with Steel, Concrete, and Lumber
In addition to our expertise in timber, we also design structures that incorporate steel, concrete, and standard lumber. This versatility enables us to create hybrid timber frame structures that leverage the strengths of multiple materials. By thoughtfully integrating different construction methods, we can address specific project requirements, achieve desired architectural expressions, and meet various budget considerations.
