Reduced lifecycle impact and building costs

The concept of an evolutive home came from our commitment to enhancing sustainability. Traditional construction methods can create a lot of waste and will need renovations through time. By designing homes that adapt and can be repaired over time, we aim to tremendously reduce waste, extend the life of the home, and ultimately, have a very powerful impact on sustainability.
