FAQs
How does the construction of these Contemporary Cabins differ from standard log cabins?
These are not traditional stacked-log buildings. They are built using a **structural frame method**. We use a heavy-duty **88mm Glulam timber frame** as the load-bearing skeleton. This frame is then covered (clad) with premium wooden boards on both the inside and outside. This method combines the strength of heavy timber engineering with the sleek aesthetics of modern architecture.
Are these structures suitable for winter use and insulation?
Yes, they are among the warmest options in our catalogue. The double-layer construction (internal and external cladding) creates a natural cavity within the walls. This space is designed to be filled with high-quality insulation material during assembly. When combined with the thermal mass of the 88mm Glulam frame, this system creates a highly energy-efficient building suitable for permanent year-round use.
Why do you use 88mm Glulam for the frame instead of solid timber?
We use **88mm Glulam** (Glued Laminated Timber) because it is significantly stronger and more stable than solid wood. It does not crack or settle over time. This rigidity is essential for contemporary designs that often feature large glass elements and flat roofs, ensuring the structure remains perfectly square and weathertight for decades.
Can I choose the style of the external cladding?
Yes. The frame construction allows for aesthetic flexibility. Depending on your client’s preference, the external cladding boards can be arranged horizontally for a traditional touch or vertically for a sharp, modern look. This versatility makes these cabins easy to integrate into any landscape design.
Do these cabins come with windows and doors included?
Absolutely. Our kits include high-quality residential-grade windows and doors. Because the **88mm Glulam frame** is so stable, we can incorporate large, floor-to-ceiling glass panels and sliding doors without the risk of the frame settling and compressing the glass—a common issue in standard log cabins.
