Timber Construction Project — Ralf Hellenbrandt

My last timber construction project before moving into expert work: a complete timber-frame building on just 192 m² of land — from the 3D design through prefabrication in my own workshop to the finished, occupied home. 14 photographs document the entire journey: planning, shell construction, roof structure, facade and the finished result from a drone's perspective.
