| ABOUT THE BOOK
From The Publisher
In years past, the mention of a log home conjured up images of a primitive
vacation cabin in the heart of a wooded wilderness. Although its roots
are firmly planted in tradition, log home living is now becoming a strong,
contemporary component of the culture of many countries. Here and around
the world, new technology and construction techniques are making log home
living a realistic alternative for a family home of any size or style.
Log home design and construction now encompasses styles from the historic
and traditional to the heights of modern innovation and opulence. The Log
Home Book presents this heightened interest in log-home living by showcasing
both the lessons and designs of the past and the most contemporary ideas
and innovations of the present. The Log Home Book contains a wealth of
useful construction and design options for the designer, builder or owner
of today's log home and is also full of novel ideas for finishing, detailing
and decorating your home - whatever the style. This is a bright and beautiful
book with over two hundred spectacular color photographs to inspire you,
and in-depth, illustrated maintenance and technical notes to help you care
for your legacy in logs. |
