JBD architects of Hereford came up with a contemporary design with single storey open plan living space and Mick and Alice were all set to go with a conventional modern timber frame construction when they happened upon Castle Ring Oak Frame.
After an informal discussion with Rob and a look around his home, they decided to see whether they could incorporate a traditional timber frame into their design and at the same time keep within their limited budget.
Balancing the design and build costs were key and were achieved by combining a post and beam douglas fir frame with a SIPS building envelope provided by SIPS eco panels.
