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 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.

The type of foundation needed has more to do with the properties of the soil and ground on the building site and the size of the house. You can use any type of foundation (pier foundation, strip foundation, base slab).
Wood is the best insulation material nature has to offer. It does not mean that you will have most energy-efficient house just by increasing the thickness of the walls. Like with every other type of house you have to consider the insulation norms for floors, ceilings and roof, use the right kind of doors and windows, etc. Furthermore, when you add a knowledgeable builder to your project you will have a well insulated, energy-efficient house.
