In this episode of the Build Original Series: Prairie Sun & Timber, Travis dives into the intersection of heritage craftsmanship and modern building science. He showcases the fusion of timber framing—complete with mortise-and-tenon joints and wooden pegs—with cutting-edge structurally insulated panels (SIPs) for exceptional energy performance. He also highlights the importance of precision in subfloor systems, showing how pre-cut i-joists and ducts improved speed and accuracy. Travis and his crew emphasize air sealing, insulation, and mechanical planning, all while celebrating visible structure and clean aesthetics. The project marries the beauty of old techniques with modern durability and comfort.
