Netherlands Log House

I bet you thought a log cabin was a rough-hewn thing that Abraham Lincoln lived in. Or maybe you’ve seen one of those modern log houses with the smooth redwood logs. But I bet you’ve never seen a log house like the one below:

This is a portable house/office made of logs located in Hilversum, Netherlands (no idea where that is; pls to google) . It’s designed by Piet Hein Eek, who seems to be a very clever, inventive type of fellow. Here’s a photo through the log house windows:

It’s not a bad view. The whole thing is on wheels, they say, so you can roll it around your backyard. Don’t know if it comes with an extra-long extension cord or how you keep it plugged in. Finally, here’s a look at the interior decor:

What do you think of the blue? Maybe sage green would be a better choice. But it’s The Netherlands, and it’s cold and snowy there, and the sky blue thing is very cheery. So maybe that’s what they were going after.

All in all, a fun, fantastic room! Sure beats the shed in my backyard! For more info, vist http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/1y2BRU/www.homeqn.com/entry/amazing-tree-trunk-garden-house/
