This Timber Frame Pavilion was a labor of love for the whole Appalachian Antique Hardwoods team. From milling wood, building doors and assembling all of the pieces, our team was excited to see the finished product. Our carpentry team custom built the dinning table to fit the entire family. Hand-hewn timbers line the walls and frame the ceiling. Mixed barn wood along the ceiling draws the eye in to see the rustic beauty of this outdoor living space. Photo by Kevin Meechan.

Our carpenters labored every detail from chainsaws to the finest of chisels and brad nails to achieve this eclectic industrial design.

A true meeting of the minds was required around every turn to achieve "rough" in its most luxurious state. Featuring: Floating vanity, rough cut wood top, beautiful accent mirror and Porcelanosa wood grain tile as flooring and backsplashes. PhotographerLink

This incredible kitchen from the #McQueenRockRunRD Project captures the personal style of the home-owners as well as our design team in perfect harmony. Many separate areas of this space keep company entertained- with an island for seating, a beverage station, and a T.V. for guests to be entertained (or the cook to watch that YouTube tutorial of their "secret" recipe).
