Did you know log homes were first built by the early Swedish immigrants? The log home eventually became the favorite home for the early pioneers in the areas where there were trees because it was easy to build.

Characteristics of Log Homes Include:
1. Made of logs
2. Mostly gable roofs (any slope)
3. The early ones had a plan type door
4. Most of the time double hung windows were used
5. Many different types of corner joints
6. 1 to 2 stories
7. Chimney on end or center
8. First windows were oil soaked cloth
9. Very rustic
10. The roof overhang was of all sizes

Log homes originally are very rustic - and seemingly popular in Minnesota. But, you can get the look of a traditional log home without actual logs. New products can enhance the aesthetic of your home while giving you the "rustic" feel you are going for.

Give The Design Team a call (320) 252-1517 for more information on the home style of the month - Log Home. If you are looking for the traditional style, or a more modern twist on the traditional log home, The Design Team has some great ideas to incorporate into your next home design project.
