DIY & E-Shop
Guides, materials, and components for builders who want to work with Soleta timber construction logic on their own terms. Coming soon.
Some clients are experienced builders or self-builders who want access to Soleta's material knowledge and construction approach without commissioning a full architectural project. We are building a curated resource to serve them — guides, specifications, and a small component catalogue.
What's Coming
Guides
Step-by-step construction documentation for self-builders working with timber post-and-beam systems. Foundation types, frame erection sequences, weatherproofing, and insulation detailing — drawn from our own construction practice.
Notify me when readyMaterials
The material palette we specify on full projects — structural timber grades, insulation products, cladding systems, and glazing specifications — described and sourced so self-builders can replicate our approach independently.
Notify me when readyComponents
A future catalogue of structural components, connection hardware, and architectural accessories for builders who have designed their own frame and need specific elements sourced to consistent quality standards.

Digital
Downloadable PDF guides and specification sheets

Stay Informed
01
Send us a short note via the contact form with 'DIY Resources' in the subject. We will add you to the list.
02
If there is a specific topic — foundation types, insulation detailing, glazing specification — tell us. The guides we produce first will reflect the questions we receive most.
03
When each resource is ready, we will notify you by email with a download link. No newsletter. No subscription.
04
Every guide will carry the same standard of care we apply to a full architectural project — because the principles are the same.
If you are planning a self-build project and want to talk through materials, systems or approach before the guides are ready — we are available.
