The art of log construction: a living Norwegian tradition
Log construction is a building technique with roots stretching back over a thousand years. Discover why this craft is still flourishing.
Log construction is not merely a building technique – it is an art form. For more than a thousand years, Norwegian craftsmen have refined the technique of building solid, beautiful timber houses. With us, this tradition lives on, combined with modern knowledge and technology.
Every corner is jointed with precision and care.

Modern log construction techniques
Today's log houses combine traditional aesthetics with modern requirements for insulation and comfort. We use dried materials that minimise settling, and modern machinery ensures precision in every cut. But the fundamental craft – understanding the timber and how it behaves – is something no machine can replace.
- •Material quality
- •We hand-pick timber from standing forest, primarily pine and spruce from higher-altitude areas where the trees grow slowly and develop a dense, strong structure. Every tree is assessed for quality, and only the very best is selected for our projects.
- •Slow-growing spruce and pine from the high mountains
- •Carefully controlled moisture content in the timber
