"I couldn't be more delighted with the benefits of building my vacation house using the
Vitruvian building system.  The house turned out exactly as we hoped -- and we knew it
would, because we saw the whole structure rendered in 3D before construction began and
updated as we made changes to our design.  The system enabled cost savings in a number of
ways that we didn't expect.  For example, the enormous insulation advantage of the system
has dramatically lowered our heating bills.  Construction costs were saved as well, as
the detailed design and unrivaled precision during construction meant subcontractors
could be asked to bid competitively on a job that would require few change orders. 
Finally, the simplicity of the construction process allowed us to go from a foundation to
a completed house in just six months!  I would not hesitate to recommend the Vitruvian
building system to someone looking to build a new home."

  "The essence of the Vitruvian proposal is the miniaturization and automation of the design-thru-production process of a Styrofoam-mass, panelized-components building system; which enables localized, small-scaled industrialization of highly varied sustainable shelters. This concept provides maximization of energy efficiency & resource utilization, while minimizing environmental impacts due to transportation, production waste and more. In addition, this simplified building system, with its innovative software and hardware technology, can even enable remote and/or low-skilled workers to produce their own habitable structures from raw, recycled materials.

The potential for applying this holistic system to the mainstream as well as unique developments within the context of whole-systems sustainability is significant in many ways."

  "Working within the highly custom field of architectural facade for over ten years, I have been in-and-out of some of the finest houses on the Central Coast. I have installed tile, precast and fireplaces into the standard organic environments, that I well know, will shift and warp as the building settles. The Vitruvian building environment provides a stiff, uncompromising pallet, that eliminates the swelling and shrinkage to which I have become accustomed. For me, this means dealing with less callbacks due to movement attributed to expansion and weight compression. Less fissures in my work, due to structural aging, means that I can charge less for my work, knowing that I will have less liability for product failure in the future."
