From vision to completion, we ensure every transition is seamless throughout the journey

1. In-house Architecture & Project Management

It is up to you to decide how your log cabin should look and which needs it should meet. With hundreds of unique log cabins behind us, we have the expertise to bring your vision to life.

Maximizing the qualities and opportunities of the site is always the architect’s starting point with us. A log cabin should be built according to the terrain—not the other way around. Our architecture department possesses extensive knowledge on how to utilize the landscape in which the cabin will sit to create something truly unique.

The signature elements of Laftekompaniet are recognizable, but there is great variation in architectural expression. Our fundamental philosophy of being innovative and creative means we are constantly evolving—often in collaboration with conscious clients.

The development begins already at the sketch stage. It is important to consider interior design and aesthetic expression early in the process to ensure a cohesive environment and an optimal final result. Through VR glasses, we offer a realistic 3D experience of the log cabin and its surroundings, making it easier for you to map out your needs.

2. Our Production

It is crucial for us to maintain control over every link in the value chain. That is why we established production facilities with optimal access to resin-rich log timber and the best available expertise. This ensures the high quality standards of Laftekompaniet.

Our hundreds of cabins are all built using timber from the same region because we know this timber meets the quality we require. We use slow-grown, resin-rich pine, and experienced professionals select only the best for our cabins.

With us, the processing and drying of well-matured timber still follow traditional methods—expertise built up over generations. It is with this knowledge that we lay the foundation for Laftekompaniet’s own quality standard for log timber.

In our modern log halls, hand-hewing still follows the classic log-cabin technique. Each log is worked individually to fit together, with corner joints carefully carved. It is precisely this technique that ensures quality that lasts for generations.

3. Construction

As a full-service provider, we have complete control over the entire construction process. The size and complexity make these demanding projects, where broad construction expertise and solid project management are crucial. We handle everything—you only deal with us throughout the entire process.

Advanced engineering requires careful planning and close follow-up. Laftekompaniet manages all involved subcontractors and ensures a predictable construction process. We have built a network of approved suppliers who deliver according to Laftekompaniet’s quality standards.

As a total provider of unique and advanced log cabins, our hallmark is the seamless transition throughout the entire process. Our job is to follow up with all involved parties and ensure quality at every step. You only deal with us.

Laftekompaniet builds in most mountain destinations across Norway and has extensive knowledge of them. Our philosophy is to make the most of local subcontractors whenever possible, both due to proximity and local expertise. All subcontractors are pre-approved by us.

4. Interior Design

When the entire log cabin is tailored to your lifestyle, the interior should reflect this as well. As a full-service provider, we consider interior design long before the framework is completed.

One of the great advantages of designing your own log cabin with an architect is that you can think about the interior in a completely different way. You can integrate not only kitchens, bathrooms, and beds but also old stairs, doors, or sentimental items. This way, the interior is customized according to your wishes.

Furnishing and interior design are an important part of the personality of an architect-designed log cabin. Including this from the start ensures the cabin is even more adapted to your hobbies. Above all, we create a foundation for an active lifestyle, which is clearly reflected in the cabins we have helped create.

The interior should be thoughtful and designed so that life in your log cabin is easy. It should be simple to wash the dog after a long day of hunting, easy to dry ski boots, and easy to store equipment where it belongs.

As part of our concept, we have partnered with some of the leading actors in interior design, including interior architects, lighting designers, and brand suppliers. Here, too, we place the same high demands on our collaborators as we do on ourselves.

For more than two decades, we have been redefining the art of log construction — marrying the integrity of heritage craftsmanship with the elegance of contemporary architecture.
