75 Great Log Cabin Homes Plans Design Ideas (52)

Modern Log home plans are designed in a variety of styles using wood logs as the primary building component. Gable roofs and rectilinear designs are characteristic, since odd angles and complicated outlines are expensive and difficult to achieve. Today’s log home style covers a wide range, from designs with true log walls, to designs where logs are used only as special effects.
