Rondawel

      The "Rondavel" - house of cedar, log construction technology fachwerk, preserving the natural shape of the timber and the root of the "skirts".
      Around the beginning of the last century in Canada and the United States began to build luxury camping, boat stations and ancestral homes of logs. Slowly builders have developed a style different from the traditional log houses known in Europe. This is how the technology fachwerk log (In Europe, half-timbered - a house made of wooden beams with a gap filled with mud walls. Ireland, England, Holland, Germany - most of the houses were half-timbered. It's cheaper chopped at home). Namely, the frame is not done beams and log. In this case, the root thickening of the trunk with a beautiful skirt (this is one of the features of the style) tried to beat the most. This tradition is still alive to this day and is gaining momentum. Each log lick, corner joints are trying to make the most interesting. Logs are often leveled at all - knots and uneven structure are trying to emphasize not hide.
      Front of the studio was tasked to capture the atmosphere and even some environmental savagery of the house and the surrounding landscape.
