Supply-informed
design is critical
for a winning project.
We offer curated design-support packages tailored to early project phases to help teams understand costs and better develop their mass timber strategy.
When project teams take early steps to coordinate a building’s program with the mass timber structure, it makes it much easier on the supplier later on. That’s why we’ll always credit any amount you spend on a design-support package toward your final mass timber order if Fort Point Timber ultimately supplies your project.
Starting at
$8,000
