Timber framing: light plaster walls between dark oak logs, a spruce roof and a cobblestone base. Barrels by the door tell people what the building is.

How to build with it
- Mark out 11 × 15 blocks and lay the Oak Planks floor first.
- Put Dark Oak Log on every corner and every 4 or 5 blocks along long walls, then fill between them with White Terracotta.
- Roof it with Spruce Planks stairs and slabs. Keep the whole build within 14 blocks of height, roof included.
- Give Cobblestone one job, such as a band under the roof or frames around doors and windows, and repeat it.
- Add Barrel last and use less of it than you think.
Rules for this build
- Something sticks up: a chimney, a tower or a spire.
- Add a smaller second building and connect them.
- Frame the door with Cobblestone.
Rules keep a build from turning into a box. Follow all three, or roll others in Blockroll.
