About wooden houses

Wood is one of the most endurable building materials, which can be seen from a number of Scandinavian wooden houses that are over 600 years old. In modern times, a pervasive trend is ecological efficiency, the tendency to turn to nature and healthy living in all aspects. This is why the wood, due to its ecological, biological and economic advantages, has again become an appealing material for the construction of houses and other wooden buildings.

Technological evolution and the modern design of wooden houses led to combining tradition and technology to produce safe, environmentally friendly and sound wooden houses suitable to man. Modern technology provided greater durability and stability of wood, while the typical shortcomings of traditional wood constructions have been eliminated by advanced design methods. Wooden houses offer ideal harmony with nature, simultaneously providing excellent thermal and sound insulation and humidity regulation. Due to such insulation, wooden houses fall in the category of low-energy houses that retain heat in winter while being pleasantly cool during summer.

Research has shown that the fire risk is considerably lower with log houses than with typical constructions. Wooden houses also exhibit more seismic endurance as they are less affected by earth tremors than typical constructions. The construction of a wooden house in itself is an entirely dry method of building, which, in addition to faster building, enables you to move into a healthy and pleasant space immediately after the completion of the works.
All these factors point to the fact that wooden houses are the ideal choice for all those who want to combine modern quality living with the warmth of home, while taking into consideration harmony with nature and aesthetics.
