GREEN OAK

With over 35 years of experience, Jackson Architects has an established expertise in the use of green oak, from simple roof structures and exposed beams to full timber framed houses and complex indoor pool buildings.
Green oak (freshly cut oak) has been used in construction for centuries. Valued for its strength, durability, and natural beauty, it allows the structure of a building to be clearly expressed. As it matures, green Oak dries slowly, developing a rich colour, pronounced grain, and texture that sits comfortably alongside traditional materials such as stone and brick or contrasting beautifully against glass and steel.

Many of our green oak frames are designed in-house, allowing for a fully integrated architectural approach. For more complex schemes, we collaborate with trusted specialist framing companies, with whom we have long-established working relationships.
