Varietes is a modern country home inspired by traditional village architecture.
Here the agreeable rhythms, sounds and scents of nature find their way into the rooms but at the same time this log house offers refuge from the burdens of the daily routine. Under the simple and undivided archetypical pitched roof is also a u-shaped terrace around the central living room. This is an opportunity to enjoy country life in any weather or season.
This building will look equally perfect in a dense forest, on the edge of the village or by a field. Central well-lighted living room merges into a single whole with the terrace and the surrounding area. The terrace has liftable wooden jalousie panels for more privacy.
Main storey partially traverses both storeys. The lower storey has a kitchen and the living room, the bedroom with a wardrobe, the entrance hall and stair enclosure and the sauna facilities.
Penthouse storey has a restroom and two bedrooms. Glazed roof surfaces let in light and offer enchanting views of the starry night sky that lull you to sleep.

We have already suggested Palmatin to many people who came to see the house while we were building it up. Everybody who saw the house liked it very much. We are very satisfied how the services were provided; we always had necessary information about our order.
PALMATIN CUSTOMER STORY
It is possible to use different stone materials as wall coverings. It is possible to choose from brick, decorative stone, etc. If you use stone as your external wall covering, a special cement board is installed on the prefabricated wall and the stone material will be installed thereupon on the site. In the case of stone covering, a wider foundation must be built to support the wall covering.
It is similar to a stone facade, a special cement board will be installed on the prefabricated walls. The rendering of the facade will take place on the site.
With wooden facade you have many additional options. You may choose between different cladding profiles, types of wood and the manners of treatment of the wood (varnished, painted, impregnated, etc.) Treated wooden cladding will be installed on the prefabricated walls at the factory.
Basic – includes drawings for the log part, log part of the house, T-battens for openings, hydro isolation between the foundation and first log row, wooden dowels, isolation between the logs, special metallic parts and packages to be delivered in the order of assembly.

In opposition to common believes, a wooden house burns hardly more than another type, made of concrete or steel. The wood, after being harvested and dried, still contains water, which will evaporate during a fire before letting the wood burn. When burning, the wood creates charcoal protection, slowing down the spread of heat. The wood structure is still solid and will not collapse. You can refer to the fire resistance class.
In Europe, buildings represent approximately 40% of the total energy consumption and 36% of the CO2 emissions and are therefore the single largest energy consumer in Europe, ahead of industrial sectors. A house is considered as passive when its energy demand is lower than 15 kWh/ m²/ year and its total energy consumption (including cooling, domestic hot water, use of devices and technical equipment, lighting, ventilation and consumption linked to building use) does not exceed 120 kWh/ m²/ year. The RT 2012 norm considers a building as “low energy” as soon as its consumption is limited to 50 kWh/ m²/ year, including lighting, heating, air conditioning and hot water. The RT 2012 norm is based on renewable energy. To reduce energy consumption and building emissions, environmentally friendly and renewable energy sources (solar panels, heating pumps…) are efficient solutions. All Palmatin constructions are complying with the RT 2012 norm and reach the energy efficiency requirements.
The period between the start of a house project and the delivery on the construction site is specific to each project as many elements can influence the duration, such as the house changes and validation of details, the rapidity of exchanges between Palmatin teams and the clients, the size of the project, etc.. In average, we consider that the preliminary phases of the project, including the discussion of the clients ideas and wishes, the budgetisation, agreement, drawings, design and technical details up to the validation before production last 5 weeks. Depending on the house type, the production is taking between 8 to 12 weeks. Besides, you can add a few weeks for the house shipment and delivery.
The cost of foundations is influenced by the type and methods required (swallow, deep, etc…). The materials also influence the price, as well as the size of the house and its features. Usually, the foundation’s cost of a house is situated between 100 to 1000€ / m3 depending on the needs. To have a more precise estimation of the foundation’s cost for your project, you can request quotations to experts.
