Residence 7 has been designed to embrace multiple manufacturing techniques. A traditional mechanical joint provides the ultimate timber alternative aesthetic. A mitre welding technique can fuse the joints together diagonally for a contemporary appearance, or choose the Graf weld for a seamless diagonal weld. The Timberweld® process welds the profiles with a timber look to both sides, or a MechWeld/External Timber Look (ETL) gives a diagonal weld to the internal face, with a timber look to the external external face.
