Timber Frame Log Homes
Timber framing refers to a building framed out of square or round timbers, so when you look at the skeletal frame of the building you will see all the support for the building is provided by the timbers. The rest of the building is generally completed using conventional construction.
Log accent however, generally refers to the use of decorative log accents to finish off a conventional 2 X 6 or Timber Frame building. Decorative log accents include such things as:
- Log railings
- Posts
- Beams
Detailing will give your home a rustic ambiance, both inside and out. Log accent features are can renew an existing home, adding character to an addition, or give a home owner the feel of owning a log building without the log shell. Timber frame homes provide great flexibility and beauty through open spaces and lots of light.
