Design a double log cabin prototype.

The structure will need to be able to:
1. Be historically accurate of log cabins built in Nauvoo in 1839
2. Provide a template for a companion structure that will hopefully be built on the original site which was across the street of the Mansion House on the corner of Water and Main.
3. The prototype unlike the structure on the original site will be available for Church groups to stay in. Because of air conditioning and heating Care will have to be taken to provide the correct vapor barriers so the dew point will not be inside of the logs.
4. Provide handicapped access for structure and basement foundation location.
5. Create a basement space for a storm shelter (fulfilling all ICC 500 requirements)
6. Maintain the historical look for the site.
