Think outside the log box!
This is the book for the next generation of log cabin lovers. The hybrid form of log element construction is finely getting recognition for being green! The hybrid style incorporates whole log timbers with old-world connecting methods using renewable resources.
The Not So Log Cabin relies on detailing and accents—such as twig art, log beams, log stairs, log railings, and log support columns—with the base of conventionally built framing. Mixtures of these elements create a dramatic contrast of rustic logs against a canvas of more delicate materials, including stone and glass.
Log hybrid’s are not limited to only new construction, this form also works well with remodeling an existing home. This is a book for those interested in a greener way of life, one that respects and utilizes renewable natural resources to their fullest potential.
Whatever taste, budget, or level of log detail you envision, you are certain to find a style here that pleases you, as well as guidelines for getting the most out of your investment.
