Architectural design services
Architectural design services
Our experienced architectural design team consult closely with you to visualise and achieve the home or garden building you have always wanted. Our designers will work with you to create a design specific to your lifestyle needs – truly a bespoke service.
Once your frame is drafted we will show you a 3D ‘fly-through’ visual to give you a realistic feel for your design. Any adjustments can be made at this stage. Once approved, these drawings are converted into machine files for the cutting of your timbers.
Once your frame is designed, you will work with our encapsulation designers to create the insulating panels that will protect your oak frame from the elements. These ‘sips’ panels offer amazing thermal efficiency, flexibility and performance to make your oak framed home not only beautiful but ready for modern day living.
Beyond your oak frame
Beyond your oak frame
Aside from the planning, designing and construction of your oak frame building, Iain’s team can complete a whole range of tasks relating to your build ranging from site clearance and preparation to finishing off and final decoration.
Additional services include:
Site clearance, drainage, foundations, concrete and steel work, roofing, plumbing, electrical, granite and work surfaces, kitchens, bathrooms, plastering, tiling, roughing and finishing joinery, painting and decorating.
Turnkey solutions
Turnkey solutions
Our turnkey build solution starts with the oak frame design process. This process begins with assessing or locating a plot of land. We can help you all the way, ensuring you avoid the common pitfalls of developing on land and helping you with the planning permission process.
We can advise on a range of issues from conservation areas, wildlife protection, public access through to listed building consent if you are adding to an existing property.

A two-time, award-winning oak frame home in Scotland
