Great Room and a Great Weekend

How about taking the long weekend and start planning your great room addition? I think that is a GREAT idea.

I have a timber truss project planned for my personal great room addition. Doug has given me a sketch and I can't wait to get started. Since my home is conventional framed, I feel the great room can't be a full timber frame. Transitioning needs to well thought out, as I may need to add timber accents to the existing areas.

If you are planning a great room addition or a timber frame addition of any kind, give a call. We would love to hear from you. 802.886.1917

Great Room Timber Frame Additions

Thinking about adding a GREAT ROOM to your home? How about a timber frame great room from Vermont Timber Works?

The traditional hammer beam bents shown above are buttressed (if you know what that means, then you know why it's important)!

King post timber trusses with a central stone fireplace makes quite a statement. Interested? Many designs and ideas are available, please give a call to discuss. 802-886-1917.

Great Room Additions, with Heavy Timber Framing of Course

The timber great room, always a good idea! Whether you have a full timber frame with timber great room and loft, or perhaps a timber frame addition that creates your great room, Vermont Timber Works has some ideas for you. Our Hammer Beam Bent shown above is a favorite.

Who says that your timber great room needs to have height? You didn't hear that from Vermont Timber Works. This incredible living room shown above has timber ceiling beams and timber posts and braces creating an octagon. Very very nice.

If you have some height to work with, a stone fire place and king posts trusses are a wonderful choice. Perhaps something similar to our Hathorne Suite design shown above. 802-886-1917
