Houses made of wood

Houses made of wood have long ceased to be a hut on the edge and have acquired an extremely attractive appearance with a rich variety of interior and exterior decoration.

To maintain harmony, the exterior and interior of a wooden house must match one another. In this case, you will get the perfect house, giving a feeling of warmth and tranquility.

Options for exterior decoration of houses from natural wood

Modern wooden houses often perform in one of the following styles:

1. Country-and -country style still remains at the peak of popularity. Yet the tree willy-nilly recalls the carefree childhood spent in the village with my grandmother. Such a simple and natural design move for houses made of lumber or round logs is very attractive, moreover, there are a number of variations of style. The house can imitate an American ranch with a stable, an English house with a flowering garden or a Russian cottage / merchant's mansion.

The decoration of the house in the style of the country provides pediments on the second floor, wooden windows with external doors. The roof can be made of slate or shingles.

2. The Finnish style is a certain balance of quality and value. The building material in this case is often a glued shaped beam, which allows to build and operate the house year-round without fear of shrinkage, deformation, cracking. The construction of the house from the timber is carried out in a fairly short time.

Proper design of houses in this style provides its distinctive appearance, individuality. In the classical style, the Finnish house has one floor and a gable roof. However, on request, a second floor, a garage and any other utility premises can be added to it.

3. Alpine chalet is a fashionable variety of wooden houses, which came to us from mountain Switzerland. Such houses have the most rational layout, and also perfectly fit into the flat landscapes. The project of the chalet provides for a spacious terrace and exposed balconies. The roof can be flat or four-tided, protruding beyond the perimeter of the house. Finishing of a similar house made of wood is carried out by massive logs with minimal processing or a bar.

Wood interior options

Planning the interior of the wooden house, first of all, you need to build on its exterior architecture. The interior of the house must correspond to the exterior and represent it as a whole. At the same time, all internal parts must be combined with each other in order to create a harmonious image.

1. If the house is made from the outside in the style of a country, then inside it must preserve the image of a village house. And most successfully this can be achieved by keeping the wood structure in the interior. This saves money for finishing materials, and it's not necessary to break a head over a picture on wallpaper. The only thing you can do is tint the wood so that the walls repeat the chosen color palette of the interior. The country style in the log house is so attractive with its naturalness that the atmosphere of romance and family tranquility reigns in itself.
2. The interior of the Finnish house implies the use of natural and, at the same time, modern materials. The house inside is very functional and aesthetic at the same time. Such interiors are usually chosen by connoisseurs of ethnic trends. Here there are places like traditional echoes of ancient times, as well as recent trends and innovative technologies.
3. The interior of houses in the style of the chalet implies naturalness or its qualitative imitation. Massive ceiling beams, wooden furniture and walls, maximum simplicity of decoration - all this makes the style very expressive. At the same time, the austerity of the situation can be diluted with luxurious details - a leather sofa, velvet textiles, a bronze chandelier, a warm stone floor. As a result, Alpine identity is obtained in combination with modern household comfort.
