@mazabuka1 Thanks Pam for the lovely comment! Hope all is good with you.

@ruraldesign Your buildings are so distinctive, somehow your walls seem not to close down space but to cradle it. Every time we go to our Boathouse it lifts our spirits.

Back to where it all began. Our very first project, and the very first contemporary timber clad house on Skye. Fully refurbished and now available for holiday rental. thewoodenhouse.net

@BlairHu70266934 a wee makeover!

@ruraldesign Wow! Looking well fancy! 😍

Day two and the roof is finished, wind and water tight! 🙌 Each panel is transported in one load on our custom made lorry with crane, allowing us to only do one journey to site, saving on fuel emissions and costs. #energyefficient #sustainablebuilding #kithouse #rhouse
