From Vision to Reality — The Nordic Way of Building

At NORD Wood House, we design and build modern timber homes with Scandinavian precision and clarity.

Our process is simple, transparent, and reliable — guiding you from the first idea to your finished home.


Discovery & Planning

1–3 weeks

Every home begins with understanding.
We discuss your goals, location, and lifestyle to define what kind of home will suit you best.
At this stage, we analyze your site, study regulations, and determine the most efficient layout, orientation, and technical approach.

NORD Team:
• Site and zoning analysis
• General planning and timeline
• Initial budget discussion

Client:
• Share your goals, images, and references
• Approve direction for the next step

Design Selection & Development

3–6 weeks

Here you choose one of two paths:

  1. Select and adapt one of our ready models, adjusting it to your site and preferences.

  2. Develop a fully custom design created specifically for you.

In both cases, we refine the architecture, materials, and proportions to reflect your vision while maintaining precision, efficiency, and Nordic character.

NORD Team:
• 3D modeling and visual presentation
• Floor plans and elevations
• Material and color palette
• Prefabrication concept coordination

Client:
• Choose design path (model or custom)
• Approve design and main materials

3
Documentation & Engineering

5–8 weeks

Once the design is approved, we prepare the complete technical documentation — architectural, structural, and prefabrication drawings.
This ensures a seamless transition from design to manufacturing and construction.

NORD Team:
• BIM model and shop drawings
• Structural calculations and energy design
• Coordination with local consultants and factory engineers

Client:
• Review and confirm final plans

4
Permitting & Fixed Pricing

4–10 weeks

We manage the permitting process and finalize pricing.
You receive a fixed package price for the prefabricated structure, and a precise construction estimate before work begins.

NORD Team:
• Prepare permit set and submit to authorities
• Coordinate with engineers and local consultants
• Finalize locked-in package pricing

Client:
• Approve final cost and project timeline

5
Prefabrication & Logistics

12–16 weeks

Your house is produced with millimeter precision in a controlled environment.
Each element is labeled, packed, and prepared for delivery to your site — ensuring quality, speed, and minimal on-site waste.

NORD Team:
• Supervise production and quality control
• Coordinate packaging and shipping logistics

Client:
• Prepare site and foundation (if handled locally)

On-Site Assembly

5–8 weeks

The structure is assembled quickly and precisely.
Within days, the timber shell is complete, weatherproof, and ready for finishing.

NORD Team:
• Assembly supervision and coordination
• Quality control and schedule management

Client:
• Visit the site and observe progress

7
Finishing & Handover

4–10 weeks

Final finishes, built-ins, and details bring your home to life.
We perform a complete inspection before handover to ensure everything meets NORD’s quality standards.

NORD Team:
• Finishing coordination and inspection
• Installation of selected materials and fixtures

Client:
• Move in and start living your new life
