Versatile Design. Durable Craftsmanship. Ready-to-Raise™.
Originally envisioned as a pool pavilion, the 19x22 Timber Frame offers flexibility to become whatever your property needs—a shaded retreat, workshop, garage, or even a cozy guest cottage. With timeless joinery and a sturdy purlin roof system, this frame combines beauty, durability, and practical design.
Design Highlights:
- Footprint: 19' x 22' (418 sq ft between the posts)
- Roof System: Purlin roof with king post and common truss options for style and structural integrity
- Flexible Layout: Large open plan easily adapted for multiple uses
- Durable Timber Construction: Built for longevity and timeless aesthetic appeal
Endless Possibilities:
- Pool Pavilion or Outdoor Kitchen: An ideal covered space for gatherings and entertaining
- One-Car Garage: Sturdy enough to house vehicles or recreational equipment
- Workshop or Studio: Room for creativity, hobbies, or DIY projects
- Guest Cottage: Enclose all or part of the frame to create a rustic getaway or tiny retreat in the woods
The frame’s dimensions and design make it equally suited for open-air use or partial/full enclosure, depending on your needs.

Great design, what is the timber list? So I can go price it out. Thanks! Also can I adjust the plans for an 18×20?
Thanks
Check out an image that I uploaded to the site at for the complete timber list.
I have also been working on a 18′ wide version on this plan that would easily be converted to 20′ long, let us know if you are interested in this plan and we will finish it up.
I’m interested in an 18 wide pavilion. Thank you!
Working on one, will be ready in about a month will let you know.
Do you have the plans ready for the 18 wide pavilion ? I would like to do this pavilion in a 18×20. Thank you.
We have the 18 x available, it will be posted on the site in December. If you you purchase the 19×22 and send me a note I will send you the 18x plan as well.

I am interested in using the purlin design (full length purlins on a 28′ by 40′ timber frame house) to have a nice overhang on the sides. My question is on the depth of the notchs on the principal rafters and purlins. I have what I think is the design I want to make. Do you design houses other than the ones for sale. What should I pay for a set of plans?
Thanks so much
Great website

Looking for the 18 x 20 version of this particular pavilion.
Have you seen our 18′ plan at https://timberframehq.com/shop/18×24-foot-timber-frame-pavilion-plan/ to adjust it to be 20′ long you simplily shorten the purlins, ridge and plates by 2′ on each side.
What kind of roof do you recommend for this plan?
We would recommend and tongue and groove ceiling with a metal roof. If you need to insulate it, then use some SIP’s on the roof in between the metal and T&G.
Any thoughts on using 6x’s instead of 8x’s? 1&1/2″ mortises?
Yes, it is possible to use 6x material but you would need to add another bent in order to carry the load.
Do you have this plan 12×16?
No, not this exact design but we do have these: https://timberframehq.com/shop/12×16-timber-frame-plan/ , https://timberframehq.com/shop/12×16-post-and-beam-cabin/ , https://timberframehq.com/shop/12×16-king-post-truss-plan/ , https://timberframehq.com/shop/12×16-timber-frame/ , https://timberframehq.com/shop/12×16-king-post-plan/
Do you have plans for a 14 X 20?
I’m in need of this design plan in 22 x 24.
Is that possible without additional center posts?
We can make that plan for you, take a look at our Custom Design page at https://timberframehq.com/custom-design/.
How hard would it be to add more length to it so it is 33′ ? The roof specs is what I would be needing.
Not hard, you can add a bent to take care of the additional length or depending on loads/etc. you can keep just the three bents. If keeping the bent count the same you are only adding the additional lengths to the purlins, plates, and ridge. Let us know if you need some custom work done.
Can you make a plan for a 34’wide by 24’deep pavilion?
Becky, that would be a custom plan- if you are interested in us creating that for you, please check out our Custom Design page.
I need this plan in 18 x 18
Have you seen the plan at https://timberframehq.com/18×24-timber-frame-with-purlins/?
what type of wood do you recommend?
I like Douglas Fir and White Pine.
I am looking at purchasing these 19×22 plans (10 Drawings), after reading the posts and looking at the 18 x 24 plans (25 drawings) it appears there are more drawings for the 18 x24, is this correct? This will be my first large Timber Frame build and I could use the additional documentation.
Robert, the 18×24 Foot Timber Frame Pavilion Plan includes more detailed piece drawings. But look at the 18×24 King Post Plan, because it is a simpler frame and has 33 pages.
What is the roof pitch on this?
It’s a 10:12 pitch
