What Is Timber Framing? Timberframing has a longstanding history and nearly dates back to the very earliest uses of wood as a construction material. Throughout the ages, it has developed into a lasting and incredibly beautiful form of construction, which leaves the large wooden beams exposed within the home, to be viewed and appreciated. Fortunately, there are still a few artisans who practice this age-old craft and offer it for modern day construction. Unlike log homes, timber frames do not all look alike. The outside may indeed look like any other home, finished with brick, stone, stucco, wood or other siding. However, there’s a surprising and distinctive difference on the inside – the exposed frame.
