Recreational Timber Homes Manshausen, Norway

When others hesitated, we built.

Vesper Homes served as the general contractor for a unique project of prefabricated timber homes on the remote Norwegian island of Manshausen, designed by architect Snorre Stinessen◾️While other European firms specializing in timber homes declined due to extreme challenges and inaccessibility, we embraced the opportunity◾️In our production facility, we built a full-scale 1:1 prototype to capture every technical detail. The solid wood panel construction and larch bio boards were then manufactured in the Czech Republic and assembled on site within a single week◾️Each modern timber home of 28–40 m² combines sustainable building, minimal energy consumption, and precise prefabrication. The project received the prestigious Red Dot Award and dozens of international design and architecture honors◾️The Czech company Vesper Homes thus proved its ability to execute challenging timber home projects even in the most extreme conditions.
