Choosing a paint colour for the exterior of your bespoke log cabin can often depend upon its location and use.
For example, blue tones (particularly by the seaside) will add an air of relaxation and tranquillity to the structure, making them the perfect colour for bespoke log cabins built to provide an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
Alternatively, for log cabins that will be used for entertaining, yellows and other brighter shades are the ideal choice. These will bring a sense of happiness and cheerfulness and will make these buildings stand out.
People may want their garden cabin room to appear more traditional and often, autumnal colours like browns and russets will provide this.
Greys are more modern hues that can create a high-end appearance for cabins ranging from a small BBQ hut to a school cabin.
When bespoke log cabins are intended to be of a more organic design or the intent is to ensure they appear to be part of the natural environment, forest greens can make an excellent choice, whereas reds and crimsons are guaranteed to make these structures pop against their backdrop.
As an alternative to paints, wood stains and varnishes could be used to enhance the naturalness of the timber. These are available in a range of shades, but are generally designed to make wood look rustic and homely.
