Framing for the Akley Road car barn project is underway.  The heavy timber frame is made of locally-milled, rough-sawn Hemlock.  The barn is situated on axis with the existing timber frame house, creating an entry court between the two buildings.  New stone walls further define this space and anchor the re-configured driveway to the sloping site.  Foundation piers have been poured for a new entry porch on the house as well as for a new screen porch at the other end of the house.

The most recent Prana Table was finished and delivered this week to the conference room in the new Heritage Flight FBO building at the Burlington International Airport.  This renovated building is a 79,300 square foot LEED facility with a green roof, solar array and wind power features.  The project architects are Truex Cullins of Burlington.  Interior design is by Truex Cullins and Gayle Erdman of Casa Bella Design in Hinesburg.

This table features a one-piece solid slab Redwood top with live edges.  The 200 year old redwood slab was salvaged from the forest floor in California where it had been for the past 100 years.  The slab is 3″ thick, 48″ wide, and 146″ long.  The table base is solid stainless steel, 3/8″ thick x 4″ wide.  Kirk Williams of Burlington fabricated the base. The finish on the table top is VOC-free Woca oil.
