My natural building experience is multi-faceted. Since 2008, I’ve designed and built structures from the ground up and contributed work to many other buildings. Currently, my emphasis is designing and building custom timber frames and installing natural plaster finishes. Here’s a broader look at the types of work I’ve done over the past 10+ years:

• Clay and lime plaster finishes
• Custom timber frames
• Straw bale, cob, and light clay straw wall construction
• Earthen floor installations
• Cob oven construction
• Dry stone walls

How Can I Help You?

Here are some of the services I am happy to offer:

• Timber frame design and fabrication (small homes, pavilions, outdoor structures, etc.)
• Plaster finishes including clay and lime (for straw bale, light-clay straw, wood lath, drywall, and other wall types)
• Earthen floor installations (in new builds and remodels)
• On-site and remote consultation — topics include appropriate material choices for your climate, helping clarify your vision for your project, design troubleshooting, detail considerations

Please contact me for more details. I’m located in Berea, Kentucky but I will take on select traveling work within a reasonable distance. Please note that I do not build cob homes in case you are wondering!
