Our Process

Our 5-step process

We’re here to make the process of building your log or timber frame home as carefree as the life you want to live in it. Aeronautical engineer Kelly Johnson, who worked with complex designs and systems at Lockheed, is credited with coming up with the KISS Principle. The idea is that simpler systems work better than more complicated ones, so the goal should be to make simplicity the key and avoid complexities, or more simply put, “keep it short and straight forward.” We get that. And that’s why we have developed a five-step process to simplify the first steps of your journey.

We have over 40 standard designs to choose from. If you’d prefer to modify one of our standard models or develop a custom plan, our design team stands ready to work with you to achieve your design needs and wants.
