The evolution of log buildings
Log cabin living provides warmth and security and naturally promotes a healthier lifestyle. The simplicity and strength of the natural materials used create a relaxed and calm home – the perfect escape from today’s fast paced world. It is often said log homes provide a warm embrace and a happy smile.
There is a reassurance in knowing that not only will your log home last hundreds of years (when maintained correctly), but also the minimal demand upon the environment in building and sustaining your log home. Logs are a natural insulator keeping the inside temperature stable and pleasant, and also providing a natural energy efficiency too.
A log home environment has positive effects on both mental and physical health. Logs are known to control and regulate humidity, improving air circulation throughout the home, and making the air healthier to breathe which can improve health and reduce allergies. The internal ambience is also very calming and has a positive effect on well being, reducing stress levels, anxiety and depression and contributing to a positive mentality.
The world's first log home built in this style, designed by Ecolodgic and created using our unique, revolutionary Ballmer Systems system.
Fir Lodge was an education in log building that sparked our desire to revolutionise this labour intensive build process.
