I have forest and plan to show a house sketch to an architect who will design the house.
1. Who calculates the timber? How much is needed and which dimensions should the sawmill cut? The architect? Or the construction company you hire?
2. Should the logging in the forest be done the season before construction starts?
3. Or is it cheaper if I buy loose timber myself, since I have to hire people to do the logging anyway?
4. Are there any good websites with people who have built in a similar way?
5. I need some guidance in the right direction now. We initially looked at a house manufacturer (Götenehus), but 200m2 hillside house for 2.1 million without flooring or interior sounds like a lot?

1. The architect/designer talks about the required dimensions, but a stud 22x95/120, 25x25, 25x38, 45x45, 45x70, 45x145, + 45x220 (if you're going to have floor joists) should cover the needs... 
The construction company calculates the quantities.
2. Yes, if you can't industrially dry the wood.
3. There are probably no astronomical sums to be saved on this deal. One possibility could be to make a barter deal with a smaller sawmill. You give them X m3 timber and get Y m3 sawn and planed wood in return (not necessarily from your own timber). You will likely have to give them some extra timber for the trouble. Moreover, there is an element of tax evasion here. Barter is not allowed.
4. Jureit is probably the forum's saw-it-yourself celebrity: http://hem.passagen.se/jerikos
5. It does sound a bit much, yes. It should be possible to find cheaper suppliers (unless an expensive plot was included in that price).
