🏡 A dream 18 years in the making…

The Adams’ oak frame extension is a beautiful example of how thoughtful design, sustainable materials, and traditional craftsmanship can come together to create something truly special.

Jamie and Madeline Adams wanted a home that respected its Hampshire surroundings, combining local character with contemporary living. Their vision included a stunning oak frame kitchen-diner extension — a warm, welcoming space designed for family life and entertaining.

Working closely with Welsh Oak Frame, the project was brought to life with handcrafted oak details, including a bespoke sling brace design that adds height, character, and a real wow factor to the room.

✨ From a long-held dream to a space that truly feels like home.

✨ From an empty field to a stunning modern barn-style oak frame home.✨

When Dawn and Kevin Truscott couldn't find the right home in the village they loved, they decided to build one instead.

Despite a plot with over 40 years of failed planning applications, determination, careful design and the support of Welsh Oak Frame helped turn their vision into reality. By adapting one of our existing designs, they created a light-filled, contemporary barn-style home that's perfectly tailored to their family's needs today—and into the future.

From vaulted spaces and beautiful exposed oak to flexible living that can adapt over time, this project is proof that your dream home can start with a great idea and the right team behind you.

Thinking about building your own oak frame home? Whether you're starting with a plot, a sketch or simply an idea, we'd love to help.

🌳 Green oak – one of the oldest building materials, and still one of the best.

A common question we hear is: "Does green oak shrink and split?"

The simple answer is yes – and that's exactly what it's designed to do.

Green oak is freshly sawn timber with a naturally high moisture content. As it dries over time, it gently shrinks across the grain, tightening the traditional joints and creating an even stronger, more durable structure. The natural cracks and character that develop aren't defects – they're part of the beauty and authenticity of an oak frame.

For centuries, green oak has been the material of choice for beautiful, long-lasting homes, and today it's still the perfect combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern engineering.

If you're considering an oak frame home or extension and would like to learn more about why we build with green oak, read our latest article here:

✨ From dark and dated to light-filled and breathtaking! ✨

When Lynne and Derek found their dream farmhouse, they knew it had incredible potential—but the existing kitchen didn't make the most of the stunning countryside views.

By replacing an old, poorly converted garage with a beautiful oak frame extension, they created a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area that's now the heart of their home. Complete with vaulted ceilings, exposed oak beams and a fully glazed gable, it's a space designed for family life and unforgettable views.

As Lynne says: "We spend most of our time in this room now – it's hard not to when it has the best views in the house."

Thinking about extending your kitchen? Whether you're dreaming of a bright family hub, a vaulted oak frame, or seamless connections to your garden, we'd love to help bring your ideas to life.
