Turning Timber Barns into Dream Homes: Our Brentwood Project with Timberlyne
At JLM Designs, we love collaborating with innovative partners who share our vision for creating timeless, functional homes—and our ongoing partnership with Timberlyne is a perfect example.
Together, we've helped transform post-and-beam barns into stunning custom residences across California. While Timberlyne provides the beautifully crafted exterior structure and structural plans, our team handles everything inside—from space planning and interior design to the full set of permit-ready interior plans. It’s a true design-build partnership that ensures each home is as beautiful on the inside as it is structurally sound on the outside.
One of our favorite examples is a recent project in Brentwood, California. The homeowners came to us with a vision: to build a modern barn-style home on a vacant lot using Timberlyne’s signature post-and-beam system. We got to work creating a highly functional interior layout that reflected their lifestyle, while honoring the natural warmth and character of the timber frame.
Our role in these barn home conversions includes:
- Designing custom interior layouts for daily function and flow
- Creating permit-ready plans that comply with California building codes
- Selecting finishes, cabinetry, lighting, and materials that reflect each client’s personal style
- Providing construction oversight to ensure design integrity through every phase
By bridging the gap between form and function, we help bring these incredible structures to life—inside and out.
