Round Logs - great stuff !

I came across the web page of Highland Log Homes and instantly fell in love with the idea of a log home made from handcrafted logs. What do you think? (Please use the comment feature underneath this post.)
I need to look into insulation properties of logs and panel systems next. Then a layout that will go with the heating systems we want to use. Although I am not sure about the heating system yet. A wood stove for the open plan living area seems to make sense but what about the bedrooms? I don't really want to install heating upstairs, although a heating source in the main bathroom will be needed for the comfort of the children. If we don't install heating in the bedrooms the children will need their own space downstairs. I think I much rather not install heating upstairs, it will make the bedrooms much more healthy to sleep in.
All this assuming we will build a 2-storey house, not a bungalow, but will we ?
