How do you design a log home? There’s more than one right answer to the question but it usually begins with a property for your home. Typically, our homeowners have already purchased the land for their new log home. The next step is to choose a plan or design a custom home suitable for the property to maximize the potential of the land.

Our Dream Book is a great first step in the design of your home. It features a wide array of popular plans to choose from. Flexibility is one of the prime advantages of an 1867 Confederation Log Home. While we offer an extensive array of plans you may choose to modify the plan, modify some of the details of the house or we will design a completely customized home.

Your local dealer is well versed in helping you to achieve your design objectives within your budget. Dealers work with our design team to articulate your vision and the many personal details that will make your home unique.

Today fax machines and e-mail have rendered distance a non-issue in designing even the most customized homes. Whether you choose to work through a local dealer or directly with 1867 Confederation Log Homes, the process is much the same as for those in our local vicinity. As you articulate your dream and the details you envision, our team of designers go to work putting it on paper. The results can be faxed or e-mailed for review and comment. (Our designers are graduates of architectural drafting and architectural technology.)
