Half timbering is the method of creating framed structures of load-bearing timber with spaces in between them, which are then filled with a nonstructural material.

It is one of the most prominent features of Tudor and medieval architecture.

Dezeen has previously teamed up with Jacob to give away his Citizen of Nowhere passport covers, which reference a comment made by UK prime minister Theresa May after the Brexit vote.

In 2016, Dezeen also featured Jacob's Insulation Scarf, which has a grey background with a black pattern based on the insulation symbol that is used on architectural drawings.
