The Linville Pavilion captures the perfect balance of artistry and engineering with its beautifully crafted 10′ x 14′ Heavy Timber Frame Curved Lower Cord Pavilion. Designed with a gracefully arched lower beam, this pavilion exudes elegance while offering robust structural support. Built by the skilled team at Harmony Timberworks, the Linville Pavilion brings a timeless architectural touch to outdoor living spaces, commercial venues, or event areas where both strength and aesthetic sophistication are essential.

The Curved Lower Cord truss is a distinctive evolution of traditional truss engineering, recognized for its gentle, arching lower beam that creates a dynamic sense of movement and space. Historically inspired by Gothic and Renaissance timber framing, the curved cord was used to introduce more sophisticated visual lines while maintaining the functional strength of classic truss structures. Unlike a straight bottom cord, the curve distributes loads more evenly, reducing tension points and enhancing the feeling of height and openness. Originally found in grand halls, cathedrals, and historic timber buildings, the Curved Lower Cord design is now celebrated for its ability to transform outdoor structures into elegant architectural features. Harmony Timberworks crafts each Linville Pavilion with this traditional influence in mind, blending timeless beauty with modern structural precision.
