Malcolm's Golf Shop and Tea Rooms is an example of how traditional green-oak construction can be used for a commercial building. The building was constructed using oak trees felled on-site to create a timber frame in keeping with the local environment. Green oak allows the wood to dry and shrink after construction, avoiding weaknesses that can occur. The project shows how green oak framing provides a durable, low-impact material for commercial structures when local architects have knowledge of the technique.
