This is the 17th episode in a new series following the construction of a small, but very stylish, vacation home for one of our clients step by step. We are calling it The Modern Mountain Getaway, and it features vaulted ceilings, a huge wall of windows, and lots of outdoor space for the owners zen garden! In this series, we will highlight building techniques, building codes, order of operations, cost, building materials and tools used, and also even talk about the problems we run into during the build! This is going to be good fun.. And the best part is that YOU can rent this home for your own mountain getaway when it is complete!!

On Episode 17 we tackle the wood accent walls! BUT... to get this project going, we first have to sift through the stacks of wood at our shop and find the best material. Jaime has been collecting wood since he was a teenager, and in fact scored a new stack of white oak just yesterday as a barter for cleaning out someones barn! In this case we decide to go with a hard maple. To make this rough sawn material useable, we spend an afternoon at the shop: ripping the edges straight; ripping the material to nominal widths; and running the material through a planer to get it smooth and all the same thickness. It is very common to spend more time prepping material than actually installing it in the finishing phases of a home! Next we install the maple planks in a rustic manner (face nails and small gaps), sand and put two coats of water based finish in place.

And as always, we include footage of the Perkins crew enjoying life here in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina. There is tons of great information about how (and why) we are doing these processes the way we are. These videos paint a very real picture of what it is like to on the job with our crew for the day!

We are building this home on a budget of course, so we will also be discussing how we choose materials (and designed the house) with the budget in mind! This is a huge part of any build, and one that I think is overlooked in many YouTube videos.
