We are particularly proud of this project because it is built in our hometown of Rovaniemi, the capital of Finnish Lapland. This log house is situated by the picturesque river, just 10 minute drive away from the city centre.

The project is a custom design for one of our trusted customers. Although it is not based the projects from our log house collection, however, it still reminds of the Prestige project, sharing many same of the same floor plan solutions. We would be happy to do a custom design for your house as well! Just contact us!

The house is built for a small family of three. Thus, it has the house area of only 131,5 sq. m. and the living area of 120 sq. m. Here is the floor plan:

The small size is explained by the fact that there is already a second log house structure on the plot. It now works as a sauna house, and it has a spacious living / hobby room, as well as a guest room. This is the view from the terrace of the sauna house.

Building log houses in a residential area has been somewhat challenging because of the building regulations. Thanks to our modern solutions such as the city corner, we are able to place the wooden log house in the city area without any problems. Here is a photo of the city corner solution from the times when the wooden building was under construction:

The log used for the outer walls is 205 x 275 mm squared laminated log. Such log is a great solution for residential area, as it is both durable, good looking and warm. The facades of the house are very modern and minimalistic:

The house has a concrete basement with logs sitting on top. The logs were delivered from the factory already numbered. Putting them in place was as easy as putting pieces of legos together.
