Post and beam construction and log houses utilizing domestic and regional timber.
Utilize local wood in the structure and space of architecture.
The Dream Wood Fragrance's post-and-beam architecture is a wooden structure based on traditional frame construction, utilizing large-dimension columns and beams. By assembling thick wood as posts and beams, it allows the structural material itself to be showcased as part of the architectural space. Unlike log houses that stack logs, this method, based on traditional framing, accommodates flexible spatial configurations according to architectural plans and uses. Additionally, the wood processing is done not by machine but by skilled artisans who carefully craft each piece by hand. The shapes of beams and columns, as well as joints, are processed to match the architectural plans, and finishes that highlight the wood's character, such as surface finishing with hand planes, are also available. It is possible to incorporate not only well-prepared timber but also the roughness and materiality from the artisan's craftsmanship into the architecture. This approach can be applied to various wooden structures, including not only residential buildings but also accommodations, stores, commercial facilities, tourist attractions, and public facilities.
