The Dargah Project: Timber Frame Completed

We recently completed the frame raising for the Murshid Sam Dargah. Here’s a picture of Mat placing the ceremonial pine bough on top of the completed timber frame. Time for a well earned celebration!

The Dickson Project: A Simple and Beautiful Timber Frame Design

Wind River Timberframes is working on a new timber frame home project outside of Golden, Colorado. The Dickson project showcases Wind River Timberframes’ ability to create a design that works for the client — and it’s a perfect example of how a simple design can be beautiful.

The Dargah Project: Zome in Place

I don’t know about you, but this is what we call “raising the roof”! — ??

Murshid Sam Dargah Frameraising

Timber Frame Dargah Assembly Begins

A couple of days ago, we started assembling the timber frame portion of a funerary shrine for Murshid Sam.

Below are some pictures of the Dargah’s geometric floor, set with raised columns and corbels. These decorative features are also functional — they will support a zome-shaped roof, which will in turn provide shelter for visitors to Murshid Sam’s grave.

We’ve still got lots of work to do on this timber frame, and can’t wait to share more images with you as this project continues!

Not Your Typical Timber Frame

In case you missed it, Wind River Timberframes has been busy constructing a shrine! The organic details of these pieces complement the angular geometry of the underlying zome frame in the Murshid Sam Dargah project.
