Along the color and wood factory, the sloping roofs are extended to form a pathway for visitors and staff to hike up and down the building while observing the production processes inside. Inside the factories, each wing has one alternating ceiling corner lifted to create inclined roofs that allow views into the production halls as well as the forest outside. Exploring The Plus feels like moving through an archipelago of colorful islands where the experience and overview of the factory’s activities are unified. ![]() Like a flowchart, the entire interior is organized with the color of each machine overflowing to the floors. ![]() The layout enables an efficient, flexible, and transparent workflow between the manufacturing units and an intuitive visitor experience. Any waste in the milling process is used to heat the kiln during the drying process, which is a small part of our ongoing commitment to energy conservation and environmental sustainability.The Plus is conceived as a radial array of four main production halls – a warehouse, color factory, wood factory, and the assembly – that connect at the center and generate the ‘plus’ shape at its intersection. It’s one of the few pine species that’s being actively reforested in the industry. Forest Service plots, which have been managed in the U.P. Most of our Northern Red Pine logs are harvested from Upper Michigan U.S. Hiawatha’s future is dependent upon our forests, and we plan to be creating traditions for many years to come.

Our Archi-CAD design computer precisely plans cuts that other CAD programs may miss. When we mill our logs we do it with the best Bezner German made precision mills available. All of our logs are factory cut and because of our state-of the art drying system, fit together like a glove once on site. Just like a good pair of jeans or nice work boots, a great Log Home is all about fit. Hiawatha Log Home’s logs are harvested in the winter, when the tree is dormant making for a less stressed drying environment, less checking and twisting resulting in increased integrity of the home. ![]()
