Hint: This page describes how we can reduce the cost of materials and build cost of a 1375 sf Seed Eco-Home from $60k to $20k in materials by using open source machines and materials production machines
Narrative
The way to reduce housing cost is by:
- Optimized Design - open source blueprints, design optimization with integrated design, and open production engineering. All are required for an efficient build that exceeds industry standards.
- Open-source compliance documentation - producing documentation and engineering reference drawings to reduce permit, plan check, and engineering costs from thousands to near zero marginal cost
- Efficient Build - 24 person, 5 day modular swarm build that exponentiates learning
- Open Source Machines - for construction and materials production.
If the current cost is $60k for materials for a 1375 sf 3 bed 2 bath home with 6kW photovoltaics, we can slash this cost to $20k with open source machines and materials.
Total Savings in an Open Sector Enterprise - $39640
- Seed Eco-Home Savings with Open Source Construction Machines - $4340
- Seed Eco-Home Materials Cost Reduction - $35300
