A
Always
well
from
our
side,
if
I
can
speak
for
everyone,
it
was
definitely
great
to
meet
you
last
week
and
and
get
that
more
kind
of
dialed
down
or
kind
of
focusing
in
on
on
what
we
can
do.
Obviously
there
was
a
lot
of
information
that
we
discussed.
We
didn't
get
to
do
everything
we
wanted.
A
We
were
hoping
to
give
them
time
constraints,
but
it
did
give
us
a
very
strong
foundation
to
work
on,
and
we
took
our
time
as
a
team
to
kind
of
come
back
and
digest
all
that
information
and
see
what
we
thought
we
could
do,
which
would
be
most
beneficial
to
you
given
given
our
resources-
and
we
kind
of
outlined
that
in
the
in
the
sunday
update
and
which
we'll
go
through
today,
but
for
today
what
we
we
really
wanted
to
do
was
kind
of
go
through
four
key
areas,
and
that
is
defining
on
the
the
deliverable
that
we
could
provide
you
with
verified.
A
Our
current
understanding
of
our
goals
clarify
some
key
facts
and
then
gather
all
that
information
to
finalize
our
work
plan
and
kind
of
get
this
get
this
project
up
and
up
and
running.
If
you
will
and
kind
of
before,
we
do
that
before
getting
into
that
kind
of
formal
area
kind
of,
as
a
back
thought
that
we
had
is
speaking
with
peter.
There
might
be
an
opportunity
for
us
to
kind
of
really
not
only
pretend
or
when
we're
like
to
be
a
consulting
firm,
but
act
really
as
a
consulting
firm.
A
In
respect
that
we
see,
a
lot
of
projects
seem
to
have
on-ground
expertise.
Getting
to
know
the
client
on
a
one-on-one
relationship
is
very
valuable.
We
think,
aside
from
having
a
zoom
call,
so
we
explore
the
potential
of
having
the
school
of
environment,
helping
us
in
and
coming
to
visit
you.
A
So
we
were
wondering
if
that
might
be
something
that
might
be
of
interest
to
you,
guys,
whether
you
think
that
might
be
valuable,
whether
it
be
like
a
a
one-day
site
visit
or
just
one
day
meeting
to
come
and
see
you
guys,
but
it
is
something
that
we
have
explored
and
we
think
could
kind
of
foster
a
stronger
relationship
between
us.
Obviously
having
met
in
person.
I
think
it.
It
helps
kind
of
create
a
stronger
bond
and
work
towards
that
final
project
in
a
more
efficient
manner.
A
This
so
what
we
yeah
it
could
be
both
we're
happy
to
explore.
We
obviously
didn't
want
to
impose.
We
wanted
to
see
if
this
was
something
that
you'd
be
interested
in,
obviously
having
us.
We
understand
that
you
have
busy
schedules,
so
you
might
not
even
have
the
time
to
meet
us
in
person,
but
so
we
remain
flexible
in
terms
of
in
terms
of
time
frame,
but
honestly,
either
in
the
earlier
stages.
It's
always
mostly
most
useful.
B
What's
what's.
B
C
C
A
B
A
B
A
All
right,
fantastic!
Well,
then,
maybe
we
can
kind
of
look
into
that
conversation
also
kind
of
going
back
with
it
with
why
I
see
it
and
see
how
feasible
that
is,
but
I
think
would
be
it
would
be
a
great
valuable
opportunity,
and
so
it's
a
glad
glad
to
hear,
but
okay
anyway
moving
onwards
from
that
really
exciting
thing
for
us.
So
what
we
do
and
do
we
want
to
do?
D
Of
course,
so
in
terms
of
the
this
slide,
we're
really
thinking
about
like
the
goals
that
you
have
specifically
for
the
seed
eco
home.
So
I
I
think
just
a
couple
of
clarifying
points
here.
The
first
one
is,
you
know.
D
Based
on
our
previous
conversations
and
our
own
research
on
this
product
line
is
first
and
foremost,
to
provide
a
modular
home
that
can
cut
housing,
construction
costs
and
we
believe,
with
this
current
model,
that
you're
working
on
the
rosebud.
It's
about
a
100
square,
1000
square
foot
home
to
be
built
in
five
days
by
24
people
at
a
cost
of
100k.
D
So
that's
kind
of
a
pretty
easy
fact
and
then,
in
addition
to
that,
there's
also
kind
of
a
more
there's
a
larger
goal
of
this
of
this
project,
which
is
a
little
bit
more
holistic,
which
is
to
create
a
sustainable
solution
to
address
the
housing
crisis.
I
believe
that
this
was
kind
of.
D
I
believe
that
this
project
had
in
mind
to
address
the
housing
crisis
here
in
the
united
states,
but
I
mean
obviously
like
this
can
be
applicable
elsewhere
as
well,
and
then,
in
addition
to
that
again,
like
a
pretty
central
theme
here,
and
something
really
central
to
this,
business
is
to
kind
of
ensure
that
it's
going
to
stay
within
the
ethos
of
creating
a
an
economy
of
abundance
and
in
addition
to
that,
it's
to
upscale
the
workforce
and
empower
people
to
contribute,
and
then,
in
terms
of
some
more
kind
of
more
practical
goals.
D
Of
this.
That
we
understand
is
to
generate
a
revenue
for
other
osc
activities
and
to
get
those
off
the
ground
and
in
addition
to
that,
it's
to
really
kind
of
use
this
product
as
a
vehicle
to
create
more
partnerships
between
osc
and
other
organizations.
That
would
be,
you
know,
able
to
kind
of
create
of
an
unexpected
relationship
with
the
company.
C
B
The
100k
price
does
not
include
land
or
the
utility
connections
or
legal
costs.
That's
just
the
build,
build
meaning
materials
plus.
A
A
E
In
low
jurisdiction.
C
B
Out
the
only
trick
around
the
100k
is
right
now
that
the
materials
have
pretty
much
doubled
or
tripled.
Again,
since
we
drove
the
bill
of
materials
which
was
about
two.
B
In
stick
frame
housing
earth
is
the
most
common
material
that's
used
around
the
globe.
I
think
I
think
the
figure
is
like
80
or
something
in
the
world.
I
mean
talking
about
including
everyone.
The
8
billion
people
on
the
planet
for.
E
B
Using
our
own
machines
and
tractors,
yeah,
absolutely
economy
of
abundance,
collaborative.
E
Design
like
the
big
goal
there
around
the
economy
of
abundance,
is
we're
not
gonna
get
to
the
goals
of
solving
housing
without.
E
E
E
B
B
B
E
B
D
And
just
to
kind
of
clarify
on
that
point,
do
you
have
like
a
specific
goal
in
mind
in
terms
of
how
much
how
much
revenue
you
wish
to
create
from
the
seat
home
product
client
in
order
to
fund
other
activities
like?
Is
there?
Is
there
a
specific
dollar
amount
that
you're
looking
to
raise.
B
E
C
E
B
Two
houses
per
month,
so
24
a
year
as
a
baseline
operation
that
we
want
to
very
clearly
see
here's
the
model
for
this
now
24
times
what
we'd
like
to
see
is
25
to
50k
net
revenue
per
build.
So
what
are
those
numbers
there?
B
Six
to
12
million
wait
is
that
am
I
getting
the
math
right?
What's
or
25,
or
up
to
50.
E
B
No,
no
we're
we're
at
one
1.2
million
600
000
to
1.2
million
per
year
would
be
a
basic,
successful
operation
which
we
think
would
be
very
completely
sustainable.
As.
C
B
Model
for
what
people
can
replicate
so,
okay,
so
here's
an
entrepreneur
that
can
do
this,
here's
an
incentive
for
them
to
get
involved,
and
this
is
still
the
affordable
housing.
We're
not
talking
about
about
expensive
housing.
C
D
And,
in
addition
to
the
goals
that
we
have
outlined
here,
is
there
another
goal
that
you
have
in
mind
that
we
probably
you
know,
didn't
get
to
address.
B
I
think
that's
that's
about
the
most
important
thing
when
I
think
about
the
the
project
in
general
is
to
create
the
collaborative
methodologies
to
make
this
work.
So
as
we
develop
the
product,
the
real
thing
is
about
developing
a
methodology
for
collaborative
development
that
transitions
the
economy
from
proprietary
to
collaborative
that
is
the
crown
jewel.
B
C
D
A
Makes
sense
wait
sorry
before
before
we
head
move
forward,
this
mustang
used
quite
a
beautiful
phrasing.
Would
you
mind
repeating
it
again?
If
you
can
it
developing
a
collaborative
model,
and
then
you
were
saying
with
regards
to
I
just
like
the
way
that
you
phrased
it
and
I
think
it's
a
very
marketable
phrase.
B
E
F
All
right
so
then
moving
on
to
where
we
think
we
can
contribute
to
this,
and
please
interrupt
me
if
you
feel
like
I've
gotten
anything
wrong
that
from
where
we
stand,
it
seems
like
you,
have
like
a
really
visionary,
really.
F
Really
yeah
amazing
new
product
and
people
who
you're
pitching
it
to
are
having
a
hard
time
really
getting
their
heads
around
it,
be
it
organizations
like
habitat
or
potential
like
other
builders
either
because
it
doesn't
fit
within
the
framework
that
they've
already
established
or
if
they
do
understand
that,
then
they
just
have
some
skepticism
that
you
can
do
the
work
they've
been
doing
a
whole
lot
better.
B
It's
when
I
heard
a
word
new
there's
nothing
new
under
the
sun.
I
I
do
believe
in
integration
of
many
different
elements
that
have
been
seen
before
key
things
like
modularity,
there's.
Definitely,
innovation
on
the
business
model
like
distributive
enterprise,
meaning
that
we
publish
this
openly
so
there's
a
bunch
of
individual
elements
that
have
been
shown
in
other
things
like
in
open
source
software
or
in
modular
design.
Being
the
the
key
to
effective
design.
The
design
community
knows
that
that
modularity
is
a
good
thing.
B
We
have
innovated
on
a
swarm-build
model
that
how
you
can
do
this
with
with
large
groups,
but
the
amish
beat
us
to
that
hundreds
of
years
ago.
So
there's
nothing
new,
but
we
are
combining
several
elements
to
make
this
efficient
design.
I
mean
same
old,
same
old,
just
effective
enterprise
and
then
management
structures
to
make
this
actually
executable
so,
which
means
that
so
so,
just
to
translate
that
what
you
said,
it's
like
how
come
people
don't
get
it
well.
B
The
idea
is
it's
the
same
thing
as
as
when
I
got
through
my
college
experience
and
I
and
I
found
more
useless
the
farther
I
went
because
I
was
saying
more
and
more
theoretical
stuff.
Well,
the
issue
about
the
way
we
study
is
that,
when
you're
in
your
discipline,
you
do
not
see
how
things
relate
and
therefore.
E
C
B
F
F
E
B
E
C
C
B
C
F
F
B
B
B
D
F
D
B
Okay,
edit
in
a
document
as
well,
so
I
can
comment
in
there.
Oh.
F
Yeah,
let
me
drop
the.
B
C
B
E
H
While
he's
working
on
that,
I
had
a
quick
question,
which
is
when
you
think
about
a
clear,
concise
business
model.
Do
you
have
an
audience
in
mind
like?
Are
you
gonna?
Are
you
considering
tailoring
it
to
a
specific
one?
You
know
the
apprentice
or
the
collaborator
or
grant
maker
or
by
definition,
a
good,
concise
business
model
is
clear
to
everybody.
I
guess
like
how
are
you
thinking
about
that.
A
Good
question:
I
I
think,
yeah
what
we
had
in
mind
and-
and
I
think
it's
highlighted
in
the
proposal-
deliverable
it's
it's
a
business
model
that
can
serve
both
internal
and
external
purposes,
obviously
needing
to
be
edited
where
necessary.
So
there
might
be
some
sections
of
it
that
might
be
particularly
dedicated
to
let's
say
someone
who
might
want
to
be
an
entrepreneur
who
might
be
willing
to
take
this
business
model
onto
themselves
and
kind
of
bring
it
forward.
A
There
might
be
sections
where
you
just
keep
if
you
wanted
for
a
grant
application-
or
there
are
some
that
are
just
for
internal
purposes,
ego
we
might
look
into
what
funding
or
partnership
opportunities
may
exist,
then
that
might
be
just
something
for
you
to
look
at
and
consider,
rather
than
necessarily
developing
it
sorry
sending
it
to
anybody.
G
G
Max,
oh
well,
I
was
about
to
say
yeah.
I
think
that
we
want
to
produce
produce
something.
That's
modular
for
you
all,
because
we've
spent
quite
a
bit
of
time
and
effort,
trying
to
understand
the
osce
model
and
ideas
and
how
the
apprenticeship
fits
in
with
the
cd
go
home
with
the
global
village
construction
set.
And
so
I
guess
we
would
be
we'd
be
really
thrilled
if
we
can
make
this
distilled
in
a
way
that
this
is
really
clearly
communicated
to
you
to
anyone
in
an
hour.
And
how
can
we
distill
this
vision?
E
D
I
guess
I'm
curious
in
terms
of,
if
there's
anything
in
the
business
plan,
that
you
would
be
particularly
interested
in
seeing
just
to
make
sure
that
we
provide
that
portion
into
the
the
business
plan
that
we're
going
to
deliver.
C
E
E
Me
that
sounds
important
because
to
me
it's
the
scalability.
E
B
Theory
and
how
do
we
have
bold
ideas
to
put
it
out
into
practice?
Well,
I
don't.
F
C
G
B
From
now
I
mean
yeah
we're
about
about
a
month
still
so,
realistically
speaking,
our
schedule
for
building
out
in
a
in
the
real
life
that's
like
may
may
about
may
john.
Does
that
sound
right.
C
G
Which
is
that's
coming
up,
quick
yeah
and
you
said
expanding
your
search.
Radius
outside
of
kansas
city.
Is
that
for
people
to
work
on
this
home,
or
is
that
just
for
suitable
regulations
and
sites.
B
The
idea
there
was
we
found
that
kansas
city
requires
three
days
for
an
inspector
to
show
up
which
would
really
throw
off
the
schedule.
So
we're
simply
saying:
can
we
work
with
within
the
jurisdiction
that
that
we
can
schedule
the
actual
inspection
saying?
Okay,
we're
going
to
be
done
on
this
friday
friday?
The
inspector
comes.
We.
B
C
H
G
E
City,
what
do
we
do.
G
Yeah-
and
I
guess
so,
one
thing
that
we've
been
grappling
with
is
trying
to
conceptualize
how
osc
is
going
to
move
forward
using
this
kind
of
well
building
this
apprenticeship
program
simultaneously
with
the
marketing
and
launch
of
the
cd
go
home
as
well
as
the
I
guess.
Upgrades
and
development
of
the
factory
farm
is
the
apprenticeship
program
and
I
guess
the
factory
farm
upgrades
are
these
still
key
components
to
the
launch
of
the
seat
eco
home?
G
C
C
D
B
C
B
Build
that's
that's
the
hardest
part.
Where
do
we
get
the
crew.
E
C
B
People
good
money
and
and
possibly
pay
for
the
and
the
hotels
and
the
logistics
to
make
that.
E
E
G
B
Just
enough
to
to
do
this
as
far
as
the
like,
what's.
E
E
B
And
and
documentation,
but
we
are
ready
to
build.
I
mean
it's.
People
have
been
building
houses
for
a
long
time.
There's
not
too
much.
E
E
B
B
The
reality
of
the
house
built
and-
and
we
can
leverage
some
of
our
remote
cad
work-
we've
done
teams
where
people
from
all
over
the
world
get
get
on
a
computer
session.
We,
where
we
use
freecad
and
google
docs
to
actually.
E
E
B
B
May,
if,
if
we.
C
B
E
B
These
are
there's,
I
do
believe,
they're
the
biggest
practicality.
There
is
six
weeks
to
go
through
the
whole
plan
check.
I
think
that
goes
to
your
next
question
about
engineering.
Yes,
for
an
engineer
to
drop
the
full
package.
B
G
Okay,
I
guess
that
helps
in
are
there
this
might
be
on
the
next
slide,
but
oh,
no,
it's
not
it's
on
the
are
there.
What
are
the?
I
guess,
liabilities
and
risks
that
you're
facing
through
this.
B
G
Yeah
this
all
this
all
sounds
very
good.
I
think
we
can.
We
are
aiming
to
wrap
this
up
by
two
or
so
to
respect
everyone's
time.
Are
there
any
other
notes
that
you
want
to
give
us
on
the
current
stage
of
development?
I
think
we
just
learned
a
lot.
Actually,
we
weren't
aware
of
some
of
these
things,
but
I
think
that
this
is
a
lot
that
we
can
start
to
work
with.
G
Oh,
I
guess
another.
Another
question
that
I
had
is
as
far
as
like
when
as
we're
kind
of
thinking
about
marketing
and
developing
this
deliverable
on
what
what
are
the
major
environmental
components
to
this?
How,
like
I
there's
so
much
waste
in
in
most
second
frame
building
is
this
is
other
major
waste
reductions
for
this
style?
Is
there
recyclability?
Is
there
reusability,
repurposing
available
with
the
modular
components?
Do
they
come
apart?
I
guess.
B
If
you
talk
about
end
of
life,
life
cycle,
analysis
and
principle,
you
can
actually,
if
the
the
roof
falls
in,
you
can
actually
recycle
the
modules
and
use
them
again.
That's
one
way,
as
far
as
because
we're
doing
what
you
can
call
digital
design,
meaning
we
pre-plan
everything
and
we
can
design
for
waste
minimization,
for
example,
if
we're
using
if
we're
making
this
the
size
of
the
structure
uses,
for
example,
standard
16
foot,
long
2
by
12
lumber
say
for
the
floor,
joists
and
roof
joists,
and
things
like
that.
B
So
whenever
possible,
we
use
stock
sections
of
material
and
altogether
the
waste
issue.
That's
in
terms
of
like
100
waste
reduction,
that'll
be
more
like
phase
two,
where
we're
3d
printing
the
modules
where
there
is
zero
waste
because
any
missed
prints
or
plat.
We
did
talk
about
plast
plastic
reclamation
to
make
plastic
lumber
in
a
scenario
like
that
or
plastic
wood
composite
modules.
B
At
that
point,
we're
at
the
at
the
point
of
recycling
recyclability
fully
if
we
move
to
next
year,
not
this
year
but
next
year
with
the
cb
construction
earth
is
recyclable
too.
The
only
other
yeah,
and
so
so
by
the
mostly
by
design
at
the
design
phase,
because
we're
specifying
exactly
this
is
how
much
you
built.
Therefore,
we,
this
is
exactly
how
you
build.
Therefore,
this
is
the
materials
you
have
wasted,
so
we
can
plan
that
more
effectively.
B
Yeah
we're
meeting
industry
standards
for
what
what
we
do
so
we've
got
the
walls,
standards
like
six
inch
insulation
and
the
main
walls
on
the
roof.
We've
got
like
r42
or
something
like
that
which
is
12
inches
of
insulation,
plus
four
inches
more
of
of
foam
insulation
for
our
flat
roof,
so
meeting
our
exceeding
industry
standards.
If
you
go
up
so
this
is
good
for
our
climate
here.
B
If
you
go
up
to
even
further
north,
you
actually
might
need
to
thicken
up
the
walls
in
terms
of
insulation,
but
for
here
this
is
good
the
as
far
as
ecological
performance,
I
did
mention
that
one
selling
point
we
can
possibly
emphasize
is
the
off-grid
system
we're
planning
on
seven
kilowatts
of
solar
as
being
standard,
so
we're
gonna
install
that
on
this
house
here
with
with
a
battery
system
and
a
smart,
basically
smart
home.
So,
for
example,.
B
In
this
house
here
we
use
things
such
as
a
chest:
freezer
to
fridge
conversion
where
you
don't
need
to
use
any
energy
at
night,
so
so
on
the
refrigeration
part
you're
doing
like
zero
energy,
which
could
lend
itself
to
a
smart
home
and
if
you're
doing
smart
home
controls,
you
can
get
away
with
solar
and
the
smart
control
system.
So
that's
another
feature
that
we
can
promote,
but
the
idea
that
you
have
the
option
who
else
offers
the
option
a
standard
option
of
off
grid
that.
E
B
A
selling
point-
I
don't
know
enough
people
care
about
that
because
that
will
add
may
add
a
little
bit
to
the
cost,
but
it's
solar
is
actually
extremely
affordable
these
days.
So.
G
I
think
those
are
a
lot
of
good
technical
notes
that
we
we
can
use.
Do
we
I
don't
know
if
we
have
that
much
more
wrap
up.
Does
anyone
else
have
questions
on
the
current
stage
of
the
builds
project?
G
Yeah-
and
I
guess
so
moving
forward
a
little
bit-
we,
I
guess
we're
interested
in
doing
some.
I
guess
market
research
and
if
we
would
be
interested
in
connecting
with
the
people
that
you've
communicated
with
that
habitat
for
humanity
or
other
potential
partnerships
to
understand
their
interests.
What
they're
looking
for
their
perspectives
on
this
industry
and
I
guess
what
they
need
and
their
their
vision
for
world
changing,
because
I
know
that
you
know
the
swarm
style
build.
Has
you
were?
G
E
B
B
C
B
In
terms
of
cost
to
have
a
quick
overview,
then.
C
C
B
B
That
says,
instruction
build.
C
G
What
else
okay,
john
you're,
sending
good
analysis?
Oh
excellent,
does
anyone
else
have
anything
to
wrap
up.
H
One
thing
that
surprised
me
going
down
this
journey
is:
I
have
encountered
some
really
phenomenal
people
who
I
know
are
out
there
that
can
address
sort
of
like
the
challenges
of
time
of
labor
and
just
like
to
give
you
an
example.
There's
this
one
guy
I
was
introduced
to
someone
I
served
with
he's
finishing
up
his
undergraduate
degree
in
engineering
he's
a
navy
vet.
He
was
actually
featured
on
the
ellen
degeneres
show
for
some
like
non
charity
work.
H
H
He
owns
his
whole
farmland
and
is
interested
in
building
it
up,
and-
and
so
I
guess
all
that
to
say
that
there's
like
really
incredible
people
out
there,
who
could
potentially
be
collaborators
like
for
this
first
build
that
I
never
would
have
thought
existed,
and
so
I
you
know,
I
just
wanted
to
share
that.
That
story
as
like
you
know,
there's
a
lot,
that's
possible.
That
may
not
be
apparent
just
like
on
the
google
machine,
looking
at
labor
trends,
so.
G
Yeah,
that's
a
really
good
idea.
Immersion
thanks!
I
guess
another.
One
last
thing
is:
how
is
the
swarm,
really
I
mean
the
five-day
build
is
sounds
really
good
is.
Does
it?
Is
it
just
sorry,
like
I'm
trying
to
praise
this?
Can
you.
C
B
C
B
C
G
G
Well,
yeah:
this
was
incredibly
helpful
and
yeah
marcia
and
john.
I
guess
I
just
want
to
emphasize
from
our
group
how
exciting
has
been
for
us
to
come
together.
Learn
about
this.
This
is
very
new
to
some
of
us
less
new
to
louise,
but
but
I
think
it's
a
really
exciting
and
compelling
vision
and
I'm
yeah
we're
really
looking
forward
to
working
with
you
all
and
moving
this
moving
this
forward
and
building
something
exciting
together.
