Log cabin and modern are not two opposite words. Even though you might thing these could not be put together to create something beautiful, this Montana example shows that architecture has a solution and it works great. The contemporary interior design of this cabin is combined with some hand-crafted wooden pieces of furniture. The rustic theme which used 10 inches wide logs in many areas is underlined with some vintage light fixtures. The generous porch was a must if the Orvis `Minocqua` design would have been followed to the letter. People from Rocky Mountain Log Homes, in collaboration with Marylee R. Syme, have tried to make a durable 2 bedroom structure and fill it with true colors and outstanding beautiful interiors. Check out the pictures and building plans to get a better image of what we have described in the previous lines. And definitely take them into consideration when planning to build your modern log cabin.

As with every building, it’s important to be aware of the views you are about to allow or block when building a structure, especially one in beautiful landscapes as the lakeside log cabin you can see in the photos. The company behind the project, 1867 Confederation Log Homes, has an experience of building high-quality custom-houses according to what the owners and future inhabitants are imagining. The cabin has 3 lovely bedrooms and a wonderful timber frame. The wood theme is present even in the areas where logs or timber weren’t use; the walls have wood tone painting on them. An ambiance of relaxation is neatly mixed with examples of elegance throughout. The decorations are hand-picked to complement the classical interior design. Simple elements like the cherry island in the kitchen or the small private walk-out balcony make the entire log cabin special. With great views to the lake, you would want to move in such a home pretty soon.
