Homestead Timber Frames
This project involves a significant expansion of the home’s outdoor living and entertaining space. The centerpiece is a 50’x20’ full timber frame pavilion, provided in partnership with Homestead Timber Frames. It features four converging vaults meeting at the center, designed collaboratively by Homestead and Vivid Construction. The project exemplifies handcrafted artistry, fulfilling the owner’s vision of creating a piece of art through talented craftsmanship. The ceiling showcases exposed spruce tongue and groove, while the standing seam metal roof, in rustic red, complements the natural red and brown tones of the timbers and Crossville, Tennessee, sourced flagstone. The entire area spans approximately 3,400 sq ft.
