Custom House Project: designing your unique prefabricated home
Bring up your ideas about your ideal future home and we'll design and manufacture it.
Design and Construction of houses from scratch
We offer you planning and manufacturing premium homes made of high quality glued laminated timber produced by our company. But why should you choose us?
- We are working with complex plots, non-standard architecture, unusual layouts
- We do landscape analysis and anchoring the house to the site
- Orientation on the client's budget: we design what is realistic to build
- Quality control: the project is checked by several specialist engineers
- Designing a house based on your sketches and references
- Large database of our individual projects
Designing a house consists of the following steps:
1. Information Gathering and Preparation
In this stage, it is important to understand what you want your future house to be like. Determine the number of rooms, their sizes, functional zones, architectural style (modern, classical, minimalism, etc.), and special requirements (garage, terrace, pool, etc.). It is also essential to consider the budget you are willing to allocate for construction and the project timeline.
Selecting/checking a land plot for construction considering factors such as size and shape of the plot, topography, orientation to the cardinal points (important for natural lighting), availability of utilities (water, gas, electricity, sewage), as well as transportation accessibility and infrastructure (proximity to roads, shops, schools, etc.).
Conducting geodetic surveys to determine the characteristics of the plot (terrain, groundwater level, etc.), engineering-geological surveys to assess soil conditions and foundation possibilities, and obtaining information about legal and urban planning restrictions (building zones, permitted height, setback norms from plot boundaries).
2. Providing Conceptual Design
Based on the collected information, conceptual sketches of the future house are created. These can be simple drawings or more detailed plans that provide a general idea of the room layout, overall house area, its exterior, and architectural features.
The sketches are discussed with the client, and necessary changes and adjustments are made. This is an important stage as the detailed project will be based on these sketches. Approval of the final sketch serves as a guide for further work. At this stage we can already give you estimate price of the prefabricated house, that you will get.
3. Preparing Detailed Design
a) Architectural Design
Creating detailed architectural drawings, including floor plans, elevations, sections, roof plan, room specifications, etc. At this stage, all functional and aesthetic requirements, as well as construction norms and standards, are considered.
Creating 3D models and visualizations to visually represent the exterior (and interior if ordered) space of the house. This helps the client better understand how their future house will look and make necessary adjustments before construction begins.
b) Engineering Design
Developing structural solutions, including calculations and drawings of the foundation, walls, floors, roof, and other load-bearing elements of the building. Materials, construction methods, and ensuring the strength and durability of the structure are considered.
Designing all house engineering systems, such as water supply, sewage, heating, ventilation, electrical supply, low-current systems (internet, phone, alarm). Schemes for laying utilities are developed, equipment and materials are selected, and safety and energy-saving requirements are considered.
4. Coordination and Obtaining Permits (if required)
In the event that your home design needs to receive seals from local certified architects and engineers, we send the existing design to an architect of your choice for review. He can make refinements or approve the design straight away.
Then, the project is submitted to the relevant authorities for obtaining all necessary approvals and expertise. These may include architectural and urban planning commissions, environmental services, sanitary control authorities, and other agencies.

After obtaining all approvals, official documents permitting construction works are issued. This includes obtaining a construction permit and other necessary permissions and licenses.
5. Production, Delivery and Construction
Once the design is ready, we proceed to the production of the glued laminated timber house to then pack it up and ship it to your site. After receiving the shipment, you can start assembly of the house. It does not take long to build our homes. Typically, a home is built from foundation to occupancy in 1 construction season (6-8 months).
Erection of a house up to 750ft² / 70 m² takes from 1 to 2 weeks. A house of 1400 ft² / 130 m² may take 3-4 weeks to be erected, given the work of an experienced construction team.
