Architecture and design led, sustainable modular building solutions company. The construction industry has not changed much over the last 50 years. It needs to reboot to serve the global housing demand. Over 1 million people move to cities every week globally. About 1.6 billion people live in substandard housing and 100 million are homeless, according to UN statistics.
