Bensonwood's history begins with the history of building in New England. The durable, honestly crafted buildings framed in heavy timbers and held together by mortise-and-tenon joinery were the dominant form of construction in America until the late 1800s.
In 1974, Tedd Benson studied and rejuvenated the forgotten craft of timber framing, while integrating modern construction methods to meet contemporary needs, such as: insulation, plumbing, electricity, and communication systems.
Today, Bensonwood is acknowledged as the premier designer/builder of energy efficient, timber frame, hybrid, and other high performance homes, commercial buildings, and specialty structures across the United States and Canada.
