What We Do:
Whether in the form of design, cutting timber frames, leading straw bale building crews, or teaching workshops, the work of Highland Artisan is to build connection.
Some people need an adviser to plan with or a coach to work side-by-side with them. Other projects call for the focused power of a community of friends and family to raise timbers, stud walls, or straw bales. If you want to be part of a collaborative design process for your home; or to assist with building your project, learning new skills and helping where you can; or if you would like to be part of a community building project, we look forward to hearing from you. We advise or work side-by-side with owner-builders We design in collaboration with our clients We lead timber frame-raisings, straw bale wall-raisings, plaster parties We lead community builds for playgrounds, barns, and other structures We teach workshops centered around clients' projects We facilitate team-building while building real structures And we are interested in exploring these ideas with you.
