The four principles of every SELECT building

ARCHITECTURAL
1. Unlimited colors and finishes for interior and exterior.
2. Unlimited compositional arrangements.
3. Unlimited sizes and shapes of openings.
4. Sophisticated, contemporary formal solutions.
5. Easily adaptable to specific sites and client needs.

ECONOMIC
1. Reduces costs by using modular, pre-engineered components.
2. Reduces construction costs with controlled, factory fabrication.
3. Reduces shipping costs by fabricating at facilities closest to site.
4. Reduces finishing costs with off-the-shelf components.
5. Increases efficiency with thoughtful mixing of construction methods.

ECOLOGICAL
1. Eliminates waste by using recycled materials.
2. Eliminates waste by mixing construction methods.
3. Minimizes construction time to reduce carbon emissions.
4. Maintains the ecosystem by accommodating to any site.
5. Shorter shipping routes to minimize carbon emissions.

SOCIOLOGICAL
1. Provides a similarly-priced alternate to traditionally styled, factory-built homes.
2. Provides accessibility to as many people as possible.
3. Adapts to any lot size or spatial requirement.
4. Provides flexibility for multiple uses or programs.
5. Provides efficient and rapid availability in emergency situations

 

 

 
 
 

Fabrication & Realization

Though each project is unique, sequences are similar

01 Grading and site preparation that includes conduit stub-out and utility service. Pour slab.

02 Erect steel frame (SKINS), that are delivered pre-cut. Build custom-framed infill (TRUNKS).

03 Install modular sheathing (SKINS), and glazing.

04 Prefab units (BLOCKS) are delivered to hte site and craned into place.

05 Install roofing, remaining interior finishes, fixtures and built-ins.
