Rondo is a two-storey log house designed in romantic key. This model is equally well-suited for a rural or urban location. Modern fancy glass surfaces are offset by railings and terraces. Appearances are dominated by the graduated pitched roof that hints at the arrangement of the rooms. External horizontal wide-plank lining enhances the air of respectability and conventionality.
The first storey contains the living room that is combined with the kitchen and the dining room, two bedrooms, an auxiliary room and a bathroom with a sauna option. Partially roofed terraces are designed in front of the living room and the bedrooms.
Exciting and playful open arrangement of the rooms is based around the stair enclosure permeating both storeys with top illumination. Adjacent are also an interior balcony over the living room and the connecting gallery. This solution enables various modern interior decoration possibilities and reinforces the sensation of openness.
Under the same roof, but separately from the house, are to be a shed, a heated pantry and a passage to the covered car parking space.
Spacious penthouse storey can be used as a separate apartment as it comprises two rooms with wardrobes and one bathroom. This arrangement facilitates adaptation to new living conditions, serving as equally suitable premises for longer-staying guests, grandparents or teenagers seeking that bit of extra independence.

We have already suggested Palmatin to many people who came to see the house while we were building it up. Everybody who saw the house liked it very much. We are very satisfied how the services were provided; we always had necessary information about our order.
We selected Palmatin because we had already ordered 1 log house previously and we are very satisfied with it.

It is possible to choose from brick, decorative stone, etc. If you use stone as your external wall covering, a special cement board is installed on the prefabricated wall and the stone material will be installed thereupon on the site. In the case of stone covering, a wider foundation must be built to support the wall covering.

In Europe, buildings represent approximately 40% of the total energy consumption and 36% of the CO2 emissions and are therefore the single largest energy consumer in Europe, ahead of industrial sectors. A house is considered as passive when its energy demand is lower than 15 kWh/ m²/ year and its total energy consumption (including cooling, domestic hot water, use of devices and technical equipment, lighting, ventilation and consumption linked to building use) does not exceed 120 kWh/ m²/ year. The RT 2012 norm considers a building as “low energy” as soon as its consumption is limited to 50 kWh/ m²/ year, including lighting, heating, air conditioning and hot water. The RT 2012 norm is based on renewable energy. To reduce energy consumption and building emissions, environmentally friendly and renewable energy sources (solar panels, heating pumps…) are efficient solutions. All Palmatin constructions are complying with the RT 2012 norm and reach the energy efficiency requirements.
The cost of foundations is influenced by the type and methods required (swallow, deep, etc…). The materials also influence the price, as well as the size of the house and its features. Usually, the foundation’s cost of a house is situated between 100 to 1000€ / m3 depending on the needs. To have a more precise estimation of the foundation’s cost for your project, you can request quotations to experts.
If you are looking for adventure and enriching experience, you can, of course, decide to build the log house by yourself. The construction on site consists of assembling the different elements, following the instructions. Our advice would be to consider in advance all the positive and negative aspects to not underestimate the work before starting. You can contact us for advice and assistance at any step of the assembly.
At Palmatin, we design the houses and projects in our offices and produced in our factory in Estonia. It can be house models, modified models or clients projects. Our production is local and under control and certifications, ensuring the best quality.
