Lodge House Plans

What is a Lodge style house plan?

With its ubiquitous cedar growth and mountainous terrain, the Pacific Northwest gave rise to the rugged form of architecture known as the Lodge style. A pragmatic use of available materials was adopted by the region’s early inhabitants, with hefty portions of timber and stone guaranteeing protection from the elements while establishing an aesthetic that implies durability and scale. Exposed wood and high ceilings supported by interlocking beams further the impression of a property in communion with its imposing natural surrounds. A Lodge style home glows with a promise of warmth and security, whether it’s planted inside a remote stretch of rainforest or raised on a new suburban plot.
