Kit and Modern Timber Frame Homes by Julian Owen
Timber frame building methods are amongst the oldest and most versatile in human history and they are becoming increasingly popular as both governments and individuals throughout the world embrace 'green' issues. Global warming is encouraging the use of sustainable, environmentally friendly materials; and building with wood and adopting timber frame construction, which reduces carbon emissions and the use of fossil fuels, is seen by many as a viable alternative to more traditional building methods.
