log construction
Stacked timber architecture
Log construction is a building method using horizontal logs stacked and notched at the corners to form walls.
The technique dates to ancient times and remains associated with rustic or frontier architecture: a log cabin in the woods, traditional log construction with dovetail joints.
Modern log construction often combines traditional aesthetics with contemporary insulation and weatherproofing.
