The Barn Consultant

 

Let me introduce you to a gentleman who holds a place close to so many hearts, Charles Whitney. Better known as Chuck, he produced the Barn Consultant bi-monthly magazine that kept like minded souls informed as to what was happening in the wide world of barns, mainly in Ohio. Charles Leik wrote a very good article on our Chuck and I have included the link here: http://www.thebarnjournal.org/people/index.html.

 

My own contribution is to say that there should be more Chucks out there, we would all be so much better off. By way of saying thank you the owners of my latest project and I agreed to call the design "The Whitney". It's a strong building of traditional design that will stand the test of time and many years use, it is pleasing to the eye and has a warm feeling even in its bare timberframe stage. So I guess we got it right in calling it "The Whitney" as it so much reflects its namesake!
