This 24×36 A-Frame merges old-world construction techniques with modern flair, featuring cruck-style braces and curved collars that add striking visual detail. The steeply pitched roofline creates a soaring interior, supplying plenty of headroom in the loft bedroom while allowing natural light to pour in through four distinctive A-frame faces.

Spacious Interiors & Soaring Ceilings
Designed with both functionality and style in mind, the first-floor layout boasts 756 square feet for a kitchen, dining area, great room, and bath—all under a dramatic vaulted ceiling. Overlooking it all is the 312-square-foot loft, which sits above the bathroom and sitting area. Altogether, you’ll enjoy 1,068 square feet of heated space, perfect for everything from a cozy weekend retreat to a full-time home.

Built for Timber Frame Enthusiasts
Thanks to its cruck-style braces and classic joinery methods, this A-frame offers a rewarding project for experienced timber framers. The steep roof pitch not only lends aesthetic appeal but also maximizes your interior volume—ideal for showcasing the exposed beamwork you’re proud to build. Whether you imagine a peaceful mountain getaway or a backyard showpiece, this 24×36 Timber Frame A-Frame promises a timeless blend of rustic authenticity and modern comfort.

Timber Frame Design and Engineering Services

We take immense pride in our team of exceptionally skilled timber frame designers. Each member is not only equipped with the finest tools but also possesses a profound understanding of how different materials intricately come together to realize your vision. This deep expertise in both design and material synergy is crucial in crafting the ideal timber frame structure tailored just for you.

Our commitment to excellence extends to our engineering team, specialists in timber frame structures, many of whom hold doctorates in their field. Sharing your passion for timber framing, our engineers work closely with you, ensuring that every aspect of the frame's design is customized to suit your specific location. This collaborative process guarantees that you receive all necessary documentation for permits, including detailed engineered reaction diagrams, ensuring your construction proceeds smoothly and stays on schedule.

The culmination of this meticulous process is a comprehensive set of construction drawings. These detailed plans not only provide a clear guide for your kit's assembly but also include a complete list of timbers and fasteners, serving as an invaluable reference throughout the installation of your frame. Our goal is to ensure that every step, from initial design to final construction, is seamless, transparent, and perfectly aligned with your project's needs.

Timbers, Joinery and Connections

Timber Frame Joinery and Connections Offered

After we've collaboratively chosen the ideal wood type for your project, we proceed to source the highest quality timber through our network of trusted mills. Ensuring that every piece meets our exacting standards, we then transport the timber to one of our cutting facilities. There, the joinery is meticulously crafted using CNC machines. Every joint, drilling, mortise, and tenon is cut with precision, adhering to tight tolerances for impeccable quality and fit.

Following the cutting process, all timbers are systematically labeled according to the production numbers assigned during the creation of your model and plans. This meticulous process ensures that every component of your timber frame is prepared with the utmost attention to detail, ready for the next phase of your project.

Included with your package are all the pegs, fasteners, screws, and connectors you need to put your ready-to-raise frame together. You will also get a detailed list for you to refer to while raising your frame.

    You could add a small second bedroom if you floored in the loft area over the kitchen. If you need our help with that, check out our Custom Design services here.
