Built for real wooden cabins

A cabin is mostly about the wood: the wall construction, the roof and the outdoor space. Geoniks designs with real log, timber frame, post & beam and CLT walls, so the 3D cabin, the materials list and the price reflect how it would actually be built — not only how it looks.

What you can design

  • Holiday and weekend cabins — one room with a loft, or two bedrooms with a living room and kitchen.
  • Sauna cabins — a sauna, changing room and terrace — or a sauna inside a larger cabin.
  • Tiny cabins — small footprints from about 15 m², with a sleeping loft.
  • Lake and mountain cabins — large windows, covered porches, decks on posts.
  • Year-round cabins — thicker or insulated walls for winter use — compare log and timber frame.

How to design a cabin in Geoniks

  1. Choose a ready cabin — or start a blank plan and draw the outer walls with exact lengths.
  2. Pick the construction — log with dovetail corners, timber frame, post & beam or CLT.
  3. Plan the inside — bedroom, sauna, bathroom, loft stairs; room areas update as you go.
  4. Add the roof and outside — roof type, windows, a deck, porch or terrace.
  5. Walk through it and get a price — then ask cabin manufacturers in your country for quotes.

Frequently asked questions

What is the easiest way to design a cabin?

Start from a ready cabin and change it. Geoniks has ready wooden cabins — for example a log cabin, a shed-roof sauna cabin with terraces and small tiny-house cabins — that you can resize, re-arrange and re-roof in 3D in the browser, for free.

Can I design a log cabin with real log walls?

Yes. Walls can be log (with dovetail corners), timber frame, post & beam or CLT. You choose the construction per house, and the 3D view, materials list and cost estimate follow that choice.

Can I add a sauna, loft or deck?

Yes. Add inner walls for a sauna or bathroom, stairs to a loft or a second floor, and decks, porches and terraces around the cabin. The ready “Shed-Roof Sauna Cabin” already has a sauna and terraces.

How much does it cost to build a cabin?

It depends on size, construction and country. Geoniks shows a turnkey planning price per m² for your country (46 countries in the Wooden House Price Index) and a cost estimate from your design; cabin and log house manufacturers that build in your country can send real quotes, free and without obligation.

Do I need a permit for a cabin?

Usually yes, but rules depend on the country, the municipality and the size. The Geoniks Plot Analyzer gives a starting-point check of coverage, setbacks and floor limits for 100+ countries; your local authority or a licensed professional gives the final answer.

Can I get drawings of my cabin?

Yes. Export dimensioned floor plans and elevations as PDF and DXF, plus a materials list in Excel, to share with a builder or manufacturer.
