The entrance of this beautiful prefabricated house is through a front porch protected from weather and overlooking. Passing the front door, the hallway leads to an auxiliary room and a separate and quiet bedroom, including a walk-in-closet with a nice window to let in some daylight. A private terrace, good for revitalizing moments and fresh air, is integrated into the architecture of the house and accessible via the bedroom. From the hallway, the main room is reached by passing in front of the stairs. Facing the stairs is the bathroom, including a sauna for relaxing sessions.

The living room combined with a dining area and lounge is well-lit thanks to daylight penetrating the large windows of the room. A fireplace can be installed to bring even more comfort and cosiness to this area.
The first floor plan is organised with three bedrooms from 12.5 to 23 m². A detached closet and wardrobe offer practical storage space. There is also a second bathroom on the same floor. A spacious landing can be transformed into an enjoyable sitting area, an office or a cosy library with book shelves and comfortable reading space. This landing is extended and connects with the outside thanks to a nice balcony sheltered by the gabled roof.

Compare to other and more standard buildings, the log houses are easy and fast to assemble. As the houses are manufactured first in the factory, they can be delivered and assembled on the construction site at any moment of the year. However, it is important to keep a construction site clean from snow, leaves or debris, to ensure the safety of the workers and the good organisation on the site.
The exterior of the wooden house is composed with the round or square log and wooden elements such doors and windows frames, eventually doors and windows, railings, porch… Therefore, the finishing for outside should be adapted to exterior conditions and made for wood care. If not coloured, the wood needs at minimum to be protected from external attacks like sun UV, bad weather or season changes. You can rely on the care instructions and informative documentation to know what stain, oil or paint should be privileged and how often they have to be refreshed. The terraces and balconies flooring can be finished at the factory if desired. Inside, a wooden house can adopt traditional and modern appearances according to the finish choices. The interior can be decorated with wooden cladding, wooden ceiling panels and parquet, paint, stones, decorative panels or wallpaper on the walls. Tiles, laminate or carpet flooring can be used for the floor, and you can opt for stretched canvas, concrete or panels for the ceiling. Like any other type of house, you are free to decorate your interior with all the materials available in the design. Discover some options of interior finishing in our catalogue “Additional elements and accessories”.
Good foundations are essential. They help to maintain the construction in good conditions, insure the proper weight distribution of the building and its stability, and prevent from structure damages. The foundations are the base of the building and its connection with the ground. Different methods and materials, such as concrete or reinforced concrete, can be used. The foundation types have more to do with the soil type and ground nature than the type of building. However, be aware that the building weight plays a role as well. The wood is lighter than other construction materials, therefore the foundations are usually thinner than average.
Thanks to building technics, woodworking and innovations, it is now possible to be more creative and not rein our imagination to create unique houses with original architectures. The narrow spaces limited by beam dimensions and 90° rooms are, for instance, distant memories. Various degree corners, beam extensions, material combinations, structure reinforcement, urban area solutions are possible. The wooden house evolved to offer larger possibilities of design and comfort.
