Plans for Modern Post and Beam Homes
Logangate’s modern Post and Beam homes combine contemporary architecture with old-world timber frame structures. Clean lines, artful ways of using glass to welcome your outside in, and structural steel cantilevers are all elements that Logangate incorporates into your Post and Beam construction. Form follows function and practicality designed into the floor plans to meet your plan and design needs. Contemporary Post and Beam homes describe those styles that are being implemented today and include the integration of materials with their natural habitat. The interior and exterior spaces of Post and Beam construction are designed to incorporate the environment that they are in and make the design a natural extension of nature.
The modern Post and Beam home style is also characterized by volume. Logangate’s Post and Beam construction, with our towering timbers, are the single most noticed characteristic of our homes. Our modern post and beam homes have no attics; therefore, all the ceilings are vaulted all the way to the roof—no faux 4x material to make it look like timbers. Our Post and Beam homes use real 4×8 Douglas fir timbers and 2×6 Douglas fir tongue and groove material, which is not only beautiful but also structural. The warmth it creates is amazing and the hallmark of our contemporary Post and Beam homes. The exterior walls of our Post and Beam construction will still have the studs exposed to the inside when erected. Therefore, you can put drywall or anything else on the walls to customize the feel you are looking for. The 4×8 rafter (beam) comes down the roof and sits on our 4x post buried in the wall, hence the Post and Beam home design. Our prefabricated Post and Beam home kits are always designed with the rafters spaced 4 ft. in the center.
Logangate Post and Beam Home Kits
Logangate’s Post and Beam homes have come up with a whole new line of homes that also cantilever. We can now cantilever 12 ft in all four directions, creating the visual effect of a floating home. Because the Post and Beam Cantilevered home foundation is tucked 12 ft under the home, you can design your dream home amongst the trees. Typically, all trees 10 to 15 ft from the home must come down because the root system will be compromised in digging the foundation. With our modern cantilevered Post and Beam house, we can build around the surrounding trees and landscape so you can have a fuller view of the natural surroundings. Check out this Post and Beam kitchen design that presents anyone in the kitchen with a marvelous view!
