New house?! Wooden house!
Also, if you calculate the time of construction, insulation and construction of plants and the period not very happy in terms of socio-economic times tend to become biblical and inconvenient.
But it seems that a new solution, logical and innovative by nature ... is coming! Many people decide in a very special home that has many advantages and seems to be regarded as the way forward in the future: old wooden houses. And we must not think that wooden house is synonymous with a tool shed or cottage garden because now the work is so professional and peculiar that wooden houses are made real and not just in the mountains. This type of building construction it is used now in any area, whether for new construction of single family homes, detached but also for extensions of existing housing. Not only that, many companies offer wood construction suitable for use as businesses or even homes as condominiums or studios can be used both as dwellings and as offices.
The advantages are certainly numerous. The first is certainly the cost savings: the wood is a material that costs less than brick requires less processing and adapts to the place where the property is located by varying the type of wood treatment and based on factors such as temperature , humidity and other external agents. All in complete safety for the local people then he must live without the use of toxic paints or products that can cause allergies and intolerances.
Other savings is certainly of ecological costs such as heating and cooling. The wood in fact, whatever type it is very insulating, so you can maintain the desired temperature for longer in the isolated house outside. Just think that 10 inches of wood island as 70-80 cm of concrete, even without the savings calculator at hand is clear and conspicuous. But not everything is in fact a wooden house is also very safe, the elasticity of material fact, give this home an excellent seismic resistance and, despite widespread knowledge contrary, its fire resistance is another of many other materials synthetics that are used inside the homes of today.
If it leads to time-sensitive investment is even more interesting. Think how much a team of workers for a week and calculated that the installation of wooden house enough that four people can do in less than a month in total safety and professionalism. And if we add that any member of the house can be made of wood such as wooden ladders for domestic savings is guaranteed.
A final factor, but not least, contributes to the fact that the choice of many people fall now in wooden houses: the aesthetics. House with wood or wood profiles, however small it may be, is always welcoming, warm and family atmosphere and unmistakable that no protective stone house will never give giving that extra touch of personality and uniqueness to your home.

 Wooden Houses: From Log Cabins to Beach Houses List Price: Sale Price: $7.54 See Reviews For This Product DescriptionWith evocative text by Judith Miller and inspiring photographs by James Merrell, "Wooden Houses" explores the decorative potential of wood in our homes. Wooden houses range from Midwestern prairie clapboard houses with wraparound porches to wood-framed barns converted into airy living spaces. Wood has always played a part in consturction, architecture, and interior decoration and has long been valued for its practical benefits. Its insulating qualities, for example,made it an obvious choice for Scandinavian homes, and so the familiar log houses came into existence. But the vast decorative potential of wood has ensured its continued use, as evidenced by 19th-century houses with elaborately carved gables and bargeboards. Indoors, wood surrounds us in many ways. Structural elements such as oak-beamed and vaulted ceilings become features in their own right. Wood can also be used as further embellishement in the form of beautiful paneling or carved and turned banisters and staircases, and in original furniture designs. Whether it is left in its natural state to show the variety of grains and depths of colours, or used as a canvas for paint techniques, wood is a beautiful resource. *A celebration of the natural beauty of wood in decoration, interiors, and architecture. *Includes an introduction to the main architchtural styles |

 Building the Wooden House: Technique and Design List Price: Sale Price: $31.80 You save: $47.70 (60%) Eligible for free shipping!Availability: Usually ships in 24 hours See Reviews For This Product DescriptionThe past decade has witnessed - especially among younger architects - a resurging interest in building with wood. The discourse has in no small measure been influenced by Konrad Wachmanns' classic Holzhausbau. And yet, this standard work (originally published in 1930) was out of print for many years. Now Holzhausbau is again available and appears here for the first time in an English language edition. Wachsmann demonstrates how new forms can be achieved when modern manufacturing processes are adapted to the traditional building material wood. He presents three totally different building techniques: the wood frame, the panel, and the log house methods and illustrates then their wide range of application possibilities by analysing plans and photographs of works of some of the century's most renowned architects. Two introductory essays enable the reader to take new hold of the book and a biographical sketch offers an impression of the times in which Wachsmann worked and lived. |
