We embrace the thorny challenges of the best players in the value-add wood industry, and build links back to design studios.
The STIXmill initiative is a founder-led passion project that was born from the urgent need to address wildfire resilience and the decline of regional timber infrastructure. This initiative is pursued with nonprofit, tribal, and economic redevelopment partners, always aiming to provide community-scaled facility solutions that include primary mill options, building kits, secondary process equipment, lumber kilns,and wood energy solutions in a challenging size class.
The STIX studio has one of North America's longest-running independent seats of the Swiss CAD/CAM platform that has powered our clients from heavy timber to mass timber and advanced panelization. We provide support services to special projects, prototype new workflows, benchmark wood product family data internally, and build capacity of growing teams.. As a small firm in the confidence of long-term repeat clientele, our growth is in the depth of service.
Our client service to the wood structure sector has expanded to serve regional trade associations with mandates to promote, educate, and increase market share of bio-sourced materials in construction. Clients like QWEB and BCWood commission us to create and manage free, nonprofit, and open-sourced digital tools under the Offsite Wood BIM initiative. We also provide CEU courses to architects and lecture/pep talks in multilevel educational venue and conferences
to a comprehensive service provider for advanced wood structure
manufacturers and industry nonprofits worldwide.
There's no substitute for in-person interactions in the field, shops, and jobsite, and we cover a lot of ground every year. Message us for a custom lunch & learn at your studio, for course offerings, and conference schedules. And let us know if you want to rendezvous in Vermont or eastern Canada!
