Tim Wyndham

Tim was born and raised in West Vancouver, and spent childhood holidays on Hornby with his family throughout the 1960's. Tim is an enthusiastic skier and windsurfer. He lived for years at Whistler pursuing his interest in skiing and ski racing and began his building career there. On winter weekends you can still find Tim setting up and promoting ski races at our local ski area, Mt. Washington. Tim moved to Hornby Island with his wife Shirley in 1974. He has been a partner in Blue Sky Design since 1978, and takes responsibility for all our construction projects.
