BUNK HOUSE

D.O.C: 11.2024 (Peripherals to be completed still)

This Bunk house was designed and built by me for a

private client. It is constructed of roughsawn fir

lumber, fir plywood, SPF lumber for internal framing,

and rigid foam insulation.

Being heavily inspired by traditional Japanese

joinery, I used as little fasteners as possible and

incorporated draw pins to hold through tenons and

half-lap joints together on the timber frame. I also

custom designed and built the windows from scratch,

and implemented ISPs (insulated structural panel)

for the walls by my design.

To be completed still is a deck and stairs, along

with privacy louvers and interior furnishings.

Design Process

This project has been on my mind for a long time. Starting with a concept sketch in 2022, it progressed to a maquette in 2024 and culminated in a full 3D model and drawings to build from later in 2024. Bringing my vision to life has been very satisfying, with the main structure completed in 11.2024. Peripherals are to come in spring 2025.

Shown below are all these stages.
