Architectural Timber Accents

Timber accents are often included in the exterior design of timberframe homes, and can also be added to conventionally built homes. For instance, a decorative timber truss may be added to the gable ends or dormers of a house to complement a structural truss used at the main entry.

Inside the home, non-structural timber posts, beams and trusses can also be used to carry the timber aesthetic to the interior of a conventionally built home.  See the Non-Structural Interior Timbers section of our Timberframe Homes page for ideas, including ceiling beams.

Whether your style is rustic, traditional or modern, there are many ways to incorporate timber elements in a home - contact us for ideas on your project!

Stock Timber Accents

For some projects, it's important to keep things simple.  Our line of "stock" timber accents offers an economical approach to accenting a home with timber.  Choose from a variety of standard options including size, finish and profile.  All of our timber accents are made from solid Douglas fir, and are pre-finished - sanded, stained and ready to install!  

Accent Trusses

King Post Truss
Made from 3" thick material, these trusses are a bold way to enhance the curb appeal of a home.

Brace Accents

Timber Brace
These accents tuck under the roof overhang or other projecting element to add interest to the home's façade.

Rafter Tails

Timber Rafter Tail
Used as a decorative exterior accent to mimic the look of structural rafters extending under the eaves, or to create a pergola-style accent over a garage door.
