A private house that provides comfort and well-being at all levels is not a dream anymore but rather the essence of projects built by the Finnish company Honka in more than 60 countries around the world. Honka Latvia CEO Roman Jerjomin points out that these unique homes are increasingly in demand in our country because people who live in them feel truly satisfied, and many of them have also observed an improvement in their overall state of health.

&rdquo;In Latvia, people traditionally loved wooden houses and built them more than a hundred years ago, some of which are perfectly preserved to this day in the Open Air Museum,&rdquo; explains Roman. &ldquo;My interest in the Honka company began more than 7 years ago when I was building my own private house. I found out that modern wooden houses are totally different from what I thought &ndash; they are precisely made from the best Finnish pine, 100% sustainable, and there are a lot of up-to-date technologies.&rdquo;

&rdquo;The 65-year experience of Honka company triggered me to develop this brand in Latvia. I decided to visit the Honka factory in Finland, and it was really a pleasant surprise for me to see what I saw there. It is an example of how to give traditions a contemporary, technologically progressive manufacturing process, combined with genuine concern for people's quality of life and the highest standards of sustainability. It is no coincidence that Honka services have been chosen by well-known celebrities like Virgin Group owner Richard Branson, while one of the British royal family's summer residences is also a Honka building.&rdquo;

Important Things Worth Knowing About Honka

Honka company (in Finnish, the word Honka means Pine) was founded in 1958 in Finland when the five Saarelainen brothers started to take an in-depth interest in building homes. Living in Finland, with its history of forest management, they grew up discovering, loving, and understanding wood. The brothers dreamed of building homes from high-quality Finnish pine and giving people all over the world the opportunity to enjoy the calming properties of logs. This led to the establishment of the first industrial log home producer in the world, based on natural materials and innovative knowledge.

Today, Honka is a global pioneer in the field of modern log home technology. Over the course of its history, more than 90,000 houses have been built around the world, and Honka has come up with countless innovations and patents that have transformed the construction of log homes to its very essence. The innovative Honka Fusion technology enables genuine solid wood to be easily combined with other building materials such as glass, stone, and steel. The Honka Fusion log is specially treated and transformed and is not subject to the inherent changes of wood over time, which means that it facilitates the construction of more audacious and diverse buildings than ever before. The raw material is an 80-85-year-old pine grown in central Finland. All timber used is obtained from sustainably managed PEFC-certified Finnish forests. The high level of automation helps ensure that the dimensions of every Honka home woodworking piece are accurate. This also makes on-site installation and construction processes fast and simple. As a pioneer in log home construction, Honka has always paid great attention to research and development. This means the development of technical products and the improvement of the product offering and services in accordance with the special requirements and wishes of customers.

The best opportunity for an introduction to Honka houses in Latvia is to visit the private village of Jūras Krasti in Garupe. Romāns explains that people are surprised by how contemporary, architecturally eclectic, and bright Honka houses can be, and how light and modern they feel. Cooperating with the official dealer in Latvia will ensure flawless quality and precise execution in every position. Right from the outset, during the conceptual and planning process, the customer can save time and up to 20,000 euros because Honka performs these steps by itself. Likewise, at our customers' request, we offer a service in which, alongside construction, we also handle typically time-consuming procedures like obtaining construction-related permits as well as performing a whole range of other administrative tasks. Bearing in mind Honka Latvia's professional experience, many customers also entrust it with arranging the interior and environmental design.

There is another aspect that Roman would like to comment upon: "One often encounters the stereotype that wooden houses are less resistant to fire. As far as Honka buildings are concerned, one can safely assert that quite the opposite is the case &ndash; pine lumber materials are much more fireproof than ordinary construction materials. It is not without reason that it is compulsory for kindergartens and other buildings of a sensitive nature in Finland to be built from wood. This is not only for safety reasons but because of the positive impact on health of wooden buildings. I've also received feedback from my customers that after some time living in a Honka house, they are no longer susceptible to allergies and the quality of their sleep has clearly improved. And overall, everyone is happier.&rdquo;

Honka is widely recognized as a provider of high-quality log houses. You can sleep well in your new home, knowing that the solutions are certified, safe, and that your house is built to last for centuries, and that your house is produced in a sustainable way. Numerous studies have demonstrated that environments with wooden structures lower blood pressure and heart rate and induce feelings of relaxation. It seems that wooden environments reduce stress, just like walking in the woods. The soundscape of a log house is quiet. Combined with the natural warmth of genuine wood and the good indoor air quality, it creates a very comfortable living environment.
