Birch Creek Design Build, LLC

Design build solutions for remodel and full build specializing in timber framing, fine woodworking and natural building using sustainable materials.

Straw bale, natural plasters, timber frame, passive solar, connected greenhouses; these are a few of the techniques we specialize in. Building is not only a craft but a science that requires ongoing learning and collaboration with other experts in engineering, permaculture, alternative energy and others. Working with the sun, wind, water harvesting, grey water systems and integrated food production and storage not only results in a house that is much cheaper to operate but also a pleasure to live in. A common critique of the type of house I'm describing is that they are riddled with "systems" that require the owner to be the operator of a complex machine, we strive to be aware of this and design in accordance with the owners desire to engage with their house. Thanks for looking!
