Our new log profile brings the look of Appalachian chinked-style logs to life. The design balances the character of traditional log homes with the expectations of modern living. Every aspect is designed to create a functional, efficient home while maintaining a handcrafted appearance.
The interlocking tongue-and-groove system uses a wood-on-wood construction method, creating a tight, reliable seal. Gasketed connections keep drafts and energy loss at bay, delivering a home that feels solid and secure. The logs are dried thoroughly to prevent shrinkage over time. There’s no need for settling jacks, which simplifies the building process and ensures long-term stability. The result is a home that functions as well as it looks, with no added hassle for the homeowner.
The Douglas Fir beams used in this style are hand-hewn, giving each one a unique texture and finish. These beams add a sense of craft and connection to the materials, making the structure feel rooted and enduring. Around the windows and doors, live-edge trims create a natural frame, letting the shapes and grains of the wood come through in subtle ways. These details come together to make a home that feels grounded in the environment while offering a sense of individuality.
This design emphasizes simplicity, with an approach focused on ease of use and durability. There’s no need to worry about adjusting for settling or dealing with gaps in the logs over time. The construction system ensures tight seals and lasting performance, so your home stays comfortable year-round without requiring constant attention. The materials are chosen and prepared with care, creating a finished structure that works with the environment, not against it.
