Value Proposition
- Lowest cost house per square foot to address the housing issue
- Practical starter home that grows with a family
- $50k for a 1000 sf house that you can build with a friend in one week. But you have to pre-build all the modules.
FAQ
The prefab is done by the owner builder. Outside of build time optimization, 4 reasons are: 1. lowest possible cost, 2. simplest design possible, 3 portability, and 4 parallel build ability.
- Achieved by using common, off-the-shelf parts such as 2x6 lumber and wood panels.
- By using repeating modules, complexity and thus skill requirement is reduced, availing the build method to more people.
- If screws are used, structure can be portable. Since it's on helical pier foundations, even the piers can be unscrewed.
- A predefined parametric structure allows a large number of teams to build in parallel. This means that if you have a large team, all of them could work together on making the panels, so all the panels can be build by a team in a single day - and even shorter - limited only by the size of the workspace and the number of people.
