The main advantages of laminated timber

What is good about laminated veneer lumber, and why is it ideal for the construction of luxury wooden houses and cottages?

Versatility

Firstly, it is a universal material from which comfortable residential buildings and cottages, luxury homes, functional and stylish hotels and inns, safe and convenient office centers are made. The unique technology for the production of laminated veneer lumber has improved the properties of natural wood and eliminated its natural disadvantages. Thanks to its high fire resistance, strength and durability, the timber copes well with any load, withstands bad weather conditions and is able to maintain performance for many years. Therefore, it is often used for the construction of not only residential buildings, but also public buildings.

Environmental friendliness

Another obvious advantage of laminated timber is environmental friendliness. Holz House uses high-quality pine and spruce wood as raw materials for the production of laminated veneer lumber, and the glue used to join the lamellas does not contain toxic substances. Thus, this modern building material does not cause allergic reactions and maintains natural air exchange and vapor permeability of the entire house.

Strength and fire resistance

Glued laminated timber is one and a half to two times stronger than solid wood logs. The fire resistance rating of laminated veneer lumber is also an order of magnitude higher than that of other wooden house-building technologies and even of metal structures. The thermal conductivity of the timber is such that in the event of a fire, while blazing on one side, it practically does not heat up on the other. Special fire retardant compounds “fire retardants” applied to the surface layer transform the wood into a highly flammable material with varying degrees of fire resistance.

Construction speed

The construction period for a house made of laminated veneer lumber is significantly less than the construction period for a house built using other construction technologies. Houses made of laminated veneer lumber with an area of ​​250 m2 are mounted on a finished foundation in 3-4 weeks.

Hooten Hall (Ellesmere Port, Cheshire)

James Wyatt's brother, Samuel Wyatt, was also an architect, and it was he who built this neoclassical mansion. The building was built in the 19th century for the 5th Baronet Hooten. The house was later purchased by a banker named Richard Christopher Naylor. He expanded it and rebuilt it in Italian style, adding a 30-meter clock tower, a colonnaded sculpture gallery and a hippodrome. Naylor stopped living in the mansion in 1875, but continued to finance its maintenance through the racecourse. During the First World War the house was used by the army as a hospital and officers' mess. Until 1957, the territory of the estate served as an army airfield (by this time the house itself had long been demolished).

Projects of mansions in a classic style

Rustic villa layout

Rustic style villas feature a harmonious combination of wood and stone used in the exterior decoration of the building. The roof is usually made in the Old German style. The pillars and external beams that support the balcony and upper terrace are not only essential structural elements of a home, but also beautiful elements of external decor. Structural solutions and external forms have much in common with Western European traditional low-rise buildings.

The interior design of the house is completely compatible with its exterior – everything is simple and tasteful. On the ground floor there is a vestibule, living room, hallway, bathroom, kitchen-dining room. On the second floor there are two single and double rooms, a bathroom, a terrace with a balcony and a large hall. In the technical area of ​​the first floor there is a boiler room and a garage. A family of 5-6 people can easily accommodate a family of 5-6 people in such a house.


The interior design of such a house could be something like this

The external forms of the villas in the classic English style delight with their purity of style and consistency in design. On the ground floor there is a utility block and boiler room, three pantries, a living room with a fireplace, two bathrooms, a terrace or balcony, a kitchen-dining room, a vestibule and a hall. If desired, you can also include a sauna and swimming pool here.

This house was built in 1672 from local stone and features traditional Jacobean style windows. During its 272-year existence, it managed to turn into a farmhouse and then into a school. Don't be surprised that in the "after" image Derwent Hall (or where it used to be) is standing in the middle of the water. In 1945, the village of Derwent was deliberately flooded by decision of the authorities - the Ladybower Reservoir appeared on this site. For this purpose, Derwent Hall and other buildings were demolished in 1944.

The estate of Eridge (Eridge Castle) was inherited by the Neville family in 1448. Queen Elizabeth I spent a week here in 1573. Around 1787, the architect James Wyatt remodeled the castle in the Gothic Revival style, called "Gothic Strawberry Hill", for Henry Neville, 2nd Earl of Abergavenny. In the 1930s, the neo-Gothic "castle" was demolished to build a smaller, more modern house. The estate is still owned by the Neville family.

Whiteknights Park House (Sonning, Berkshire)

Whiteknights Park House was a beautiful Italianate mansion in the heart of a medieval estate. It was purchased by the Marquess of Blandford in 1798, and spent his fortune on libraries, gardens... and parties. His guests included Queen Charlotte, her son King George IV and the writer Mary Russell Mitford, and his wine cellar contained 12,000 bottles of the finest wine. In 1819, Blandford - by then a Duke - went bankrupt and lost the estate. The house was demolished in 1840. There are rumors that Blandford's creditors literally took the mansion piece by piece, but it is more likely that within 20 years it simply fell into a state of complete desolation and ruin.

ESTATE PROJECTS IN THE RUSSIAN STYLE – NOT SO DIFFICULT

Despite all the attractiveness of a classic noble estate, no one is now capable of building “Arkhangelskoye” or “Ostankino”: it is too large-scale and expensive, and no one can live on the same scale anymore...

But it is possible to implement the project of a Russian classical estate on a more modest scale, accessible to a modern developer.

This will not be too difficult, because what sets a Russian family estate apart from others is not its high cost and size, but its inherent compositional features, spatial design and architectural style.

It is at the same time elegant and modest, solemn and homely, simple and complex, in general, ambiguous and multifaceted, like Russian architecture in general.

We will illustrate the basic rules, the observance of which will allow you to create a project for an estate in the Russian classical style without problems and extra costs. The buildings of a modern family estate project will not be as grandiose as their pre-revolutionary counterparts, the decor will be less solemn, but the house will turn out beautiful, harmonious and comfortable, the outbuildings will be convenient and appropriate for exactly the purpose and size that you need, and the Russian spirit will be in it must be present.

Plot.

The ensemble can be located in dense urban areas on a site 30-40 meters wide - then the mansion and outbuildings are built almost close to each other and form a cozy and solemn courtyard - court d'honneur along the street; or be located freely in nature, occupying a vast territory and becoming an adornment of the surrounding landscape.

A prerequisite for the location of buildings is that the complex in all its glory must be visible from all sides, or be completely visible at least from the front. It is absolutely forbidden to hide it behind a high, blind fence, because hiding such beauty from people is a crime. Actually, a blank fence generally contradicts the Russian way of life, and therefore will always be perceived as an alien element.

Location on the site.

The main buildings are located along the red line. The composition of the ensemble is always symmetrical. The house stands along the axis, and outbuildings emphasize it on the left and right. They are usually pushed forward a little, so that they form a front courtyard facing the street. In the center of it there is traditionally a fountain, sculpture or flowerbed. This is the standard planning scheme for a family estate project. Simple and beautiful, proven over centuries!

The estate in the example has a large plot of land, almost two hectares of forest, so behind the owner’s house there is a park with a straight main alley - a ray directed towards an ancient temple located nearby, which is generally accepted for Russian urban planning - a person constantly has the church in sight, never forgets about God. Along the perimeter of the park there is a curved walking path with picturesquely scattered park structures and gazebos. In cramped conditions, in a town or village, there will be no park, but the principle of the relative position of buildings will remain the same, your estate will still be impressive and beautiful. Depending on the shape of the territory provided to you, the wings can be turned on different sides to the road, placed close or moved apart, creating a unique building composition that is ideal for a particular case.

• Since the “manor’s” house is the main one in the ensemble, and the wings only complement it, they should be much smaller, lower and more modest than their “boss”. Their task is to accompany and shade. The smallest buildings (gazebos, booths, etc.) may not participate in the composition and be placed freely between the trees.

• The area of ​​buildings in a Russian-style estate project can be very modest, for example, a cottage of 150 - 250 m2 and 2 outbuildings of 40 - 100 m2 each. That is, 220 - 500 m2 can already look like a classic family estate, of course, if the layout is carefully thought out and there is nothing superfluous anywhere.
