A large log store can do more than hold a winter's worth of logs. This 260 cm wide firewood store made from HPL proves the point: at first glance a generous store for seasoned logs, at second glance a deliberately placed building block in the overall outdoor concept – one that elegantly solves two problems of the plot at once. Exactly this dual role is what separates a planned log store from a shelf that was simply put down next to the terrace as an afterthought.
On site, the log store takes on two additional tasks. First, it harmoniously extends the L-shaped retaining blocks of the upper garden level and carries their line cleanly onwards – the retaining wall becomes one continuous designed edge instead of stopping abruptly at the lawn. Second, it creates a modern screen for the visually unappealing heat pump behind it, which quietly disappears from view without being boxed in. Log store, spatial edge and privacy screen in one: order, a better outlook and a clear upgrade for the whole situation.
At 2.60 metres in width, this extra wide log store holds a substantial stock of firewood – arranged on a single level, well ventilated and always within easy reach. There is no digging through a deep pile for dry logs: the supply sits in front of you like a well-ordered shelf. And the filled front becomes a design feature in its own right, because the warm, irregular texture of the stacked logs contrasts beautifully with the calm HPL frame and brings a natural note into the clean lines of the modern garden.
The log store is made from HPL (high-pressure laminate) by Trespa – UV-resistant, frost-proof and impervious to rain. The surface does not fade in the sun, rain simply washes dirt away, and painting or impregnating is never required; the material is designed for a service life of around 50 years. While the firewood comes and goes with every heating season, the frame stays as precise as on day one – no greying, no warping, no annual weekend spent with brush and wood stain.
Every DESIGA log store is planned to match your firewood consumption, the available space and the design task it has to perform – from a compact solution against the house wall to a room-defining wide format like the one shown here. Because width, depth and height are decided by your plot rather than by a catalogue grid, even awkward corners, level changes and transitions can be resolved cleanly – often turning a leftover strip of ground into the most useful spot in the garden – our weatherproof log stores show how differently that brief can be answered.
The finish is just as flexible: more than 250 HPL colours and décors are available, from pale greys to deep anthracite and wood-look surfaces. Free colour samples are posted to your home, so you can judge the shade next to wall, paving and planting in real daylight before you decide.
Every DESIGA log store is developed and manufactured in Germany. It leaves our workshop fully assembled and travels by specialist carrier, so it is ready to be filled the moment it arrives – with delivery available across Europe. Is there an edge, a heat pump or an unresolved corner in your garden waiting for a better answer?
