AKA Incremental Housing Construction Set

Source - [1]

The Extreme Affordability Construction Set (EACS) is a modular construction system designed for rapid village-scale deployment and extreme affordability. The system is based on standardized 10×12-foot cabin modules engineered to be stackable up to four stories using a telehandler, enabling fast vertical and horizontal growth without specialized cranes. It includes a library of interoperable modules—stairs, canopies, kitchens, bathrooms, roofs, decks, and circulation elements—that snap together into coherent settlements rather than isolated structures. By treating housing as a kit of parts rather than a one-off building, the system enables incremental development, mixed-use layouts, and dense yet human-scale villages that can be built, modified, and repaired using local labor, common materials, and open designs. The framing emphasizes adaptability, speed, and extreme cost reduction, translating the Expertise-Embedded Design Principle into an explicit, open-source construction grammar suitable for education, enterprise, disaster response, civilization-scale bootstrapping.
