IT HOUSE
The IT HOUSE Component Package combines materials and technology that are visually compatible and clip together with simple details. As the elements of the house are components they are extremely pliable and can create a wide range of floor plans to suit any site and client.
The essential components of the IT HOUSE are the flexible aluminum frame, both for structure and wall framing, an acoustical steel deck roof, aluminum framed glazing system primarily consisting of large sliding doors, panelized enclosure system, and built in cabinetry. The framing system can be used to easily create fully or lightly enclosed spaces, exterior courtyards or screened in porches.
The IT HOUSE can be completely off-grid, generating its own heating and energy reinforcing the goal of achieving a minimal building footprint. Energy efficiency is achieved in the IT House through passive heating and cooling, utilizing site orientation and cross ventilation, radiant floor heating, hi-efficacy appliances & equipment and the use of solar photovoltaic & thermal panels.
