We like wood. We especially like our big timber beams which we use as accent details on the exterior and interior of our homes. Today my framers set the beams on the entry of our new East Rim home. I have to admit it was pretty exciting and impressive seeing them put it into place!

Designing and building a house with us is truly a fun process from the moment we start working on the plans till the day you walk in the front door. Making all those plans and ideas come to life is very exciting! Here we are working on some exterior color schemes to help our clients visualize their custom Whitefish home.
Check out the corbels on the front of our carriage house! In architecture a corbel is a structural piece of stone, wood or metal jutting from a wall to carry a super incumbent weight, a type of bracket.
I can’t help but brag a little about our carpenter Tom, who just finished this amazing reclaimed wood room. Tom created this set of false doors which look so real everyone who sees them wants to pull them open. They really are a work of art, as is this special space he just created!
Trusses were just set at our new project today, which makes it feel like a house! This is part of the full wall of windows looking out the back of the great room. Pretty nice view, wouldn’t you say?
We love the idea of designing special places in your home which are both a creative use of space and something uniquely you. This particular client has a grandson who loves the color orange (and sleepovers!) Just imagine all the fun memories these bunks will make.
Did you know Glacier National Park is just 35 minutes Whitefish? This is a pic from the foot of Lake MCDonald, just inside the entrance of GNP, taken this morning.
All our stains are custom mixed for every project. We spend a lot of time working to get each client the perfect shades, inside and out.
