Overview

Designed to bring the true spirit of cabin style back to its roots, Robbin Obomsawin's latest book Log Cabin Classics is inspired by nostalgic, old-world cabins and filled with tips for meeting today's current needs.

Since place-not space-is what true harmony with nature and cabin living is about, Log Cabin Classics includes practical construction advice, straightforward and creative design, advice on using local materials and choosing a site, architectural details, and handcrafted artistry. These principles are applied to a collection of one-of-a-kind plans you can use as springboards for creating your own "log cabin classic." Log Cabin Classics features 20 classic cabin designs under 1,500 square feet.
