Log cabins and their trends

There are many different styles and types of bespoke log cabins, but some of these trends are more enduring than others. 

For example, the rustic look always seems to be popular and is considered an iconic look for these buildings. Often, it includes exposed wood, high windows and natural light.

Other established movements are the sustainability trend. Usually, outdoor huts and gazebos have lower energy costs and a minimal carbon footprint, both during their construction and consequent periods of time when in use. Having off-the-grid barbeque sheds is also on trend.

Open plan interiors allow owners to use the space in a versatile and practical way. The inside can be easily adapted to meet needs, whether the building is used as a hobby area or as a school cabin. For log cabins used as homes or holiday accommodation, the uninterrupted space allows for socialising, as well as letting in more light.

An outdoor area can act as an additional dining or entertainment space, and this can be especially important for indoor barbeque rooms. Multi-functional log cabins can be easily adapted to meet the changing needs of the owner. Rooms like attics or lofts can be converted into an additional bedroom or storage space and changed again to a bathroom or craft room as the need demands.

High tech accessories like energy management systems or alarms can also be added to log cabins.
