Carpentry or woodworking using wood that has not been milled into lumber and is still in its natural shape describes the National park service rustic style.[1]

Construction
Joinery on twigs and branches is similar to joinery for lumber. Mortise and tenon joints are strong, but also labor-intensive and time-consuming. Twigs and branches can also be fastened with nails. Where one branch meets another, the ends must be coped, or cut to match the curve.[2]
