Can you share some details about the construction/ materials used?

Love this! It would be a solution to our flat-roofed boat house and the lines are fantastic. Would you mind sharing details? Thanks and I appreciate any input you'd have. Your projects blend new and old quite well - I'm impressed.

I am glad you like it, but unfortunately some things cannot be be copied without the consent of the designer. This was a custom design/build by a licensed architect and a registered engineer. There were concrete piers and a lot of skilled carpentry involved with this structure. I wish you could just go and copy it. If you need the designers' contact information, just let me know.

Thank you for your fast response. I had admired the structure maybe at least a year ago and first saw it on Houzz. The proportions and scale don't overshadow what it's situated against. Kudos to the designer and to you guys for bringing it to life!

It was cedar that they used here, I believe... Again, well-done!
