I did 3 posts on Jonny Briggs’ timber framing on my blog here: www.lloydkahn.com/?s=briggs
Jonny is a 26-year-old carpenter from North Yorkshire who learned his craft at the Prince’s Foundation for Building Community (that’s Prince of Wales — traditional carpentry is just one of Charlie’s many earth-sensitive endeavors).
“…The building craft apprenticeship allows students who have a genuine interest in traditional building, sustainability and design to learn from master craftspeople around the UK.
Jonny now specializes in the design and build of traditional timber frames, structural timber work and bespoke furniture.”
Jonny wrote us today:
Hi Lloyd,
I have finally got a website together which shows the larger structures I have built over the last few years. It’s www.jonny-briggs.com
Thanks,
Jonny
I tell ya, the 20-year-olds these days are really something! A whole new octave.
