Most people already know that among all the different kinds of materials you can use to build your home, wood is the most comfortable and that's why we've been using it for centuries. For nature lovers, however, wood has been and will always be the go-to building material because it's flexible, easy to source, sustainable and it brings a naturally relaxing vibe to a home. Not only that, wood is also relatively inexpensive.

For this ideabook, we gathered eight beautiful wooden houses that you can look at and take ideas from for your own dream home.

1. The rustic countryside home

This gorgeous house is made from dark oak and designed in a deliciously rustic style. It has a floor space of 68 square meters and is used as a vacation house perfect for those long weekend getaways. The wide front porch is great for hosting guests and the large glass windows allows you to take full view of the natural landscape.

2. Orange house

The sunlight really brings out the beautiful shades of the wood of this outstanding home. It is a single-storey 217 square meter house that almost has warm orange glow during the summer. The front yard is massive, ideal for fun family activities. Best of all it has a nice shaded area so you don't have to worry about too much sun or rain.

3. Forest cottage

This charming little wooden cabin is like something you would often see in a movie. It utilizes the wood with a dark hue that provides a beautiful balance with the lush natural landscape. It has a floor space of 66 square meters and features a large terrace so you can take in the wonderful nature views.

This is definitely one of our favorites wooden houses. It uses dark wood that adds mystique to the atmosphere. The details found on the doors and windows are ornate and beautifully designed and made of lighter wood that complements the house's facade. It features a small terrace on the second floor along with a chimney and a fireplace.

6. One-storey vacation house

This wooden house can either be built in the city or in the province because of its versatile size. At 169 square meters, it's a single-storey home that works well with all kinds of spaces.

8. Compact wooden house

At 142 square meters this last wooden home is not that large. However, what it lacks in size it definitely makes up for in charming appeal. This wooden log home features a wide front porch that's connected to a lush garden with a stone walkway.
