KIGUMI & CO.TIMBER ARCHITECTURE
COMMISSIONING & PREFABRICATION TIMELINE

Architectural Commission Protocol

From forest selection and 3D Passivhaus modeling to rapid on-site dry assembly.

01

Topographic & Solar Feasibility

Our architects analyze your land plot orientation, wind vectors, seasonal solar path, soil conditions, and municipal zoning to establish passive house parameters.

02

Timber Log Forest Selection

Hand-selecting mature Hinoki and Yoshino Sugi cedar logs directly in Nagano and Nara, or high-altitude European larch in the Swiss Alps.

03

5-Axis CNC & Hand Chisel Joinery

Precision mortise-and-tenon joints are milled to 0.1mm tolerances and finished by master carpenters (*Miyadaiku*) for flawless friction locking.

04

Dry Assembly & Handover

The entire timber structure is dry-assembled in under 7 days on-site with zero crane idling, followed by interior washi and tatami fit-out.
