Arch opening to alcove leading to two bedrooms next to primary living space in Michigan handcrafted log home. Adding the alcove/short hall gives much more separation to these private spaces. Separating public and private spaces in a log home can be a important part of getting a design just right. #loghome #logcabin #Loghomedesign #logcabindesign

Piece on piece construction is when a log post and beam construction system is used, such as this hotel project we did in Lithuania, with stacked logs used as infill between the log posts. #loghome #logcabin #loghomedesign #logcabindesign
Post and Beam Log Home
The first post and beam home I designed (over thirty years ago) clearly points to my interest in creative geometry to create interesting log structures but also interesting interior spaces. Of course, I still love simple cabins! #loghome #loghomedesign #postandbeam #postandbeamdesign
Log Post and Beam Entry
Entry of round log post and beam home, one of several we designed in the Blue Ridge Mountains. We used western red cedar, among other reasons, due to its dimensional stability and lower shrinkage rate. #loghome #loghomedesign #postandbeam #postandbeamdesign

Loft Office in a log post and beam home. Often lofts in log homes have spaces that can be used to create smaller private spaces: an office, a reading nook, a sewing area, a games area.
Living room for bar alcove in handcrafted log home on Lake Huron. Large diameter handcrafted logs allow us to work with different types of arches throughout the home. #loghome #Loghomedesign #logcabin #logcabindesign
Handcrafted log home in south central Pennsylvania. With the sloping lot, we put the entry on the back side in order to entry at the main floor level and have the primary living areas looking out over the sweeping views. #loghomes #loghomedesign #pennsylvanialoghome #handcraftedlog

A log post and beam screened porch. We backed the fireplace onto one in the dining room behind and to an outdoor BBQ, as well. I was very happy with the result. #screenedporch #logporch #postandbeam #loghomes — in Haliburton, Ontario.
