A design-build construction technology company creating a fully digital home design, manufacturing and construction process in order to provide affordable, sustainable, and healthy housing to all.


Details

Value Proposition

Our novel design and construction process allows us to build homes for less than $250/sqft in under 2 months of on-site build time. National average numbers to compare to are $324/sqft and over 9 months of build time.

Our Goal

Our goal is to redefine what the homes and the cities of the future will look like and use modern innovations to get us there. We do not believe the problems with construction and housing can be solved piecemeal and we have come up with a comprehensive solution ━ not just in terms of health and sustainability but in including every part of the home, from foundation to solar panel-clad roof.

Our Values

We believe quality housing should be accessible to all and that low cost does not have to mean low quality. We are a Public Benefit Corporation because we feel that companies have an obligation to improve the lives of their customers, employees, communities, and benefit the planet along with the shareholders.

Our Process

We use engineering-first principles to redefine the ideal home and have created an optimized process to manufacture and assemble that home. We take inspiration from how nature solves problems and design modern technological solutions to mimic those.

Our Expertise

With a focus on engineering, robotics, materials, eco-home design, and virtual reality we are addressing the problems of construction with fresh eyes. We see the whole home as a single, complex product to bring it in line with the advances other industries have made.
