About us

We are a full-service architecture firm — we can manage any design modifications and foundation design. Our professional services includes generation of permit-ready construction and engineering documents. Many of our clients start with a floor plan and modify it to fit their personal needs; other clients ask us to commission designs for wholly new homes, then we coordinate with their General Contractor on assembling the home.

The genesis of FabCab was the 2010 Seattle Home Show where Emory Baldwin unveiled his TimberCab design. Encouraged by the enthusiastic response to his approach to healthy and efficient living, Emory re-calibrated his architecture firm to focus full time on FabCab.

TimberCab Pricing

FabCab professional services and materials •  Professional design and engineering fees •  Full set of permit-ready documents •  FabCab shell materials •  Freight of shell materials to building site

*This is an estimate based on Washington State cost of labor, easily accessible level lot and standard interior finishes. Cost of labor varies by region. Estimate does not include other project costs such as purchase of the land; site preparation; septic/sewer; utilities connection; permitting and other possible fees. Unfortunately, it's not possible for us to provide estimates for these items because we don't control them — they would come from your builder or other agencies. Pricing does not include any applicable sales tax, and should be considered a starting point for budgetary purposes only.

Our SIPs are 6.5” (R-24) for walls and 10.5” (R-40) for roofs. They are 60% more energy efficient than a typical stud wall that has fiberglass insulation. SIPs are manufactured in a controlled environment with wiring chases cut in. These panels are efficient to assemble and reduce on-site waste. If additional insulation is required, panels can be thickened.

*Other species available upon request.

Our roofing is 24-gauge steel standing seam metal roof with crimped

seams. Metal roofing lasts 2x to 3x longer than asphalt shingles.

Concealed clip/fastener system allows for thermal expansion and

contraction. Cool-roof finish.

Exterior walls incorporate a rain screen assembly behind the siding. The

system of drainage and ventilation pathways is designed to ensure dry

conditions within the wall panels. Rainscreens equalize air pressure and

allow moisture to evaporate rather than remaining in the walls.
