When it comes to traditional English Tudor architecture, the demanding details of the wood work can be overwhelming. Thanks to the talented Architecture firm of Hilton-Vanderhorn architects and Cornerstone Contracting, we're proud to showcase our most recent project in Greenwich, CT. We hope you enjoy the intricate details contained in the photos we're showcasing on the website.

The materials used in the timber frame and exterior gable "fachwerk" were all cut from extremely high grade, FOHC (free of heart centers), kiln dried White oak. White oak is a naturally rot resistant hardwood that grows in various regions throughout the Untied States. This particular White Oak was harvested in central Virginia and milled at the Dreaming Creek sawmill. I had a chance to speak with Doug Vanderhorn after the project wast completed and he had this to say:

"This is our largest use of brick and half timber facade yet.  I must say that the process is complex but worth it.  Dreaming Creek did a fantastic job with the shop drawings and fabrication.  Our contractor Cornerstone provided an excellent installation with leaded copper flashing and stainless fasteners recessed and plugged.  The brick was installed months ago and it appears so far that nothing has moved at all.  Over all the house looks more like a restoration than new, and that's just the way we like it."
