Varietes is a modern country home inspired by traditional village architecture.
Here the agreeable rhythms, sounds and scents of nature find their way into the rooms but at the same time this log house offers refuge from the burdens of the daily routine. Under the simple and undivided archetypical pitched roof is also a u-shaped terrace around the central living room. This is an opportunity to enjoy country life in any weather or season.
This building will look equally perfect in a dense forest, on the edge of the village or by a field. Central well-lighted living room merges into a single whole with the terrace and the surrounding area. The terrace has liftable wooden jalousie panels for more privacy.
Main storey partially traverses both storeys. The lower storey has a kitchen and the living room, the bedroom with a wardrobe, the entrance hall and stair enclosure and the sauna facilities.
Penthouse storey has a restroom and two bedrooms. Glazed roof surfaces let in light and offer enchanting views of the starry night sky that lull you to sleep.

We selected Palmatin thanks to fast feedback and informational webpage. There were a lot of house plans and projects. Many other log house companies didn’t offer drawings. We asked price offers from 7 to 8 companies and only received two price offers – one was from Palmatin.
We selected Palmatin because we had already ordered 1 log house previously and we are very satisfied with it.

Wood is a living element. After being harvested, the wood is still breathing, changing and interacting with the environment. Wind, air, sunlight, climate change, location…many factors influence the wood ageing process and its appearances. These factors will darken the wood through time to grey hues. To prevent the wood from becoming darker, or protect its natural aged colour, you can use different stain and paint, depending on the final result.
When building the houses, we use two varieties of wood: pine and spruce. These types of wood provide with a warm climate, due to low density. During summertime, the house is kept fresh thanks to the wood breathing features. Also, the wood is solid, flexible and resistant.
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”.
A prefabricated house is an easy-to-build type of house. The prefabricated elements – external and internal walls, ceiling, roof, are designed and made in the factory, including the two sides of the elements, the insulation, etc. When going out of the factory, the house elements are ready to assemble on the construction site. The house can be built in any season, in the factory, and assembled in several days on the construction site. To read more about the prefabricated house elements and assembly, you can visit the “technologies” category of the website menu.
