You want a sanctuary.
Somewhere your children grow up surrounded by warmth and clean air. Where winter mornings smell like timber, not chemicals. Where every room feels grounded, solid, and deeply at peace.
Hand-scribed joints allow your home to flex and settle naturally with the land. This isn't rigidity, it's engineered harmony that grows more settled with time.
Every cubic metre of timber removes carbon from the atmosphere and locks it away for generations. Your home begins life with a negative carbon footprint.
Solid timber absorbs and releases moisture to keep your home in the comfort zone where your family breathes easier. No machines. Just timber.
Solid timber's natural mass provides extraordinary structural integrity that improves with age. Your home is designed to stand for generations.
A Siberian hand-scribing
master working at estate
scale in this hemisphere.
Your vision deserves hands that understand timber at the deepest level, twenty years of Siberian mastery, now dedicated entirely to your project. Ilia Zubko doesn't build from plans alone. He listens to the grain, reads the land, and shapes every log to serve the life you want to live. A depth of craft we have yet to find practised elsewhere in this hemisphere.
Three ways to Experience,
One Standard of Craft
Directional ranges. Every commission is bespoke, priced to the land, the timber, and the life it will hold.
A full timber estate, hand-scribed from foundation log to ridge beam. One commission per cycle. Four to five years from first forest walk to handover, with lifetime stewardship thereafter.
See the CommissionAn integrated wellness estate. Hand-scribed banya, cold plunge, retreat pavilion, composed landscape and outdoor furniture. One to three commissions accepted per year, paced so each receives Ilia's full attention.
Explore the BanyaA single piece carried through the same tradition. A dining table, a chandelier, a standalone banya, an outdoor structure. The craft at the scale of a room, rather than a residence.
See the CollectionFigures are directional. A full framework is shared in the private briefing.
"Our clients don't come to us to be referenced. They come to disappear into the life the house makes possible."
Every commission is carried out under strict confidentiality. A short selection of reference letters and completed-build testimonials is available, under non-disclosure agreement, to enquirers who have been invited to private briefing.
The journey is the home.
A timber estate begins long before the first log is scribed. It begins in the forest, where trees have stood for a century waiting for this moment. We walk that forest with you, your own land where we can, a native stand where we can't, and guide you through the full story of how your home is born. So when you live in it, you remember every step. So when your children ask about the timber above their heads, you have the story to tell them.
For every tree we mill,
we plant two more.
Built into every commission. The forests that give your home its bones return, doubled, to the land that raised them.
Three steps between
here and home
