Amazing Tree-Trunk Garden House
Shikha Chauhan | Jan 15 2010

This is going to be amongst the most unique homes we’ve covered on HomeQN so far. The Tree trunk garden house in Hilversum, Netherlands is a house made from logs. The home is all carved from stack of logs which is truly an inspiration for those who think that the wooden houses are not appealing. Designed by Piet Hein Eek, the house is constructed at the edge of the woods. The house is fully ventilated with the sliding windows that are fitted into specially designed frames made from simple plastic and steel. Truly a remarkable architecture with the appealing look!

Very cool but i would have piled so real logs on sides to make it look less like a big block.

Appealing is the very last word I’d use, any one who has ever done any work with logs knows that it is the ends that soak up the rainwater and invite buggies in to dinner. I’d say it won’t last long and it’s ugly, BUT it’s probably warmer in those long cold winter there in Norway.
