- Why has modular housing not succeeded yet?
Insights: kit houses are too much work for the seller, and are incapacitated by skill set of owner-buikder. The result is hiring professionals, which costs too much. We address this by running professionally-guided builds with negative labor costs - by optimizing the professional assistance part. Now how to say this in plain English?
- Just another open source house project?
WikiHouse. OBI offering: 5x lower cost to performance ratio. Open Architecture Network. Habitat for Humanity. Architecture for Humanity. Open House from Portugal. This goes into the Kickstarter description.
- Popular statement on cost.
We turn labor costs into labor revenue. We combine design-buikd (Jersey Devil) with modular simplocity as opposed to vanity. We socialize the design cost, SME and other. We simplify the design so it's designed to be easy to build. We optimize material waste - from average 20% waste to 5%. We reduce materials cost by open materials harvested in site (brick, lumber, and insulation.)
R&D Points
- Lowest cost electric option - DC power center + night time TEG. Outcome: costing of components for a minimum system.
- Pellet burner - outcome: use available components, then open source a Pellet Burelner Construction Set.
