The brief
The client wanted a house in the garden beside the family home that could be lived in all year, somewhere for family members and his business partners to stay. The 4 x 5 m floor plan came straight from his brief.
Built without machinery
By the time we arrived, the garden was already finished, which made the build considerably harder. There was also no access road to the plot, so a crane or any other construction machinery was out of the question.
So we built the whole house by hand, and it was still finished in just four days.
Norwegian technique
In the Norwegian technique the logs are flat on both the inner and the outer face. Furniture sits easily against the straight walls, and every part of the interior can be put to good use.
