Another construction site has been opened near Ribnica. A private client has started building a residential house. The building is designed in two “wings” on a concrete base. The superstructure is designed entirely as a prefabricated wooden structure. Over the winter, individual wall elements were produced, as well as the timber frame structure made of […]
