Building unique hand crafted timber structures using age old techniques.

At Beam & Brace, we see timber framing as more than a craft. It’s a dialogue between tradition and modern design. Through natural materials and intricate joinery, we create spaces that feel grounded, enduring and deeply connected to nature. Each frame tells a story of care, craft and continuity built to be lived in and loved for generations.
