Hello, I am a new poster.
I would like information on any companies (located anywhere in the world) who produce good quality wooden cabins/small houses with quirky styles including 'wigwam' looking ones.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forum. Spouse and self reenact the 7 yrs war. A number of reenactors portray the First Nations ((Shawnee/Piankasha/etc) in so doing they use canvas "wigwams". Wigwams come from the word wigwas for birchbark. The canvas is a great substitute and gives a bunch of room.
They use a "Panther Primitives" 10x12 wedge tent with the bell. I have helped with making the willow frame and tying the frame together. Off the top of my head I can't give the measurements but it would be easy to work it out. After the frame is tied together the tent is thrown over the frame and staked down. They will deal with nasty storms if tied well.
