frame advice

saturday, i travelled to alstead, new hampshire, where i met with architect friend andrea warchaizer who designs timber frames. she gave me a lot of good ideas for our buildings and a few examples of frames she has designed to help me get on my way to figuring out the framing for our kitche. she has offered to give our frame a look once it's designed and recommended an engineer who can help us with getting the design through state approval. all really good info. thanks andrea! we had a grilled cheeses and a hot tub too. perks!

i will be away for until the january 23, so unless bambi posts here, there won't be any activity. a new york design review is scheduled for january 29 and, as far as i know, this is on. there will be lots of info to share!
