When we think of the industrialization of building elements and processes often fall into the dilemma of elaborate small pieces and be on the side of sustainability since it can be carried easily (reducing energy consumption) or making large parts and be on the side of economy reducing execution time and labor.

This proposal aims to establish a bridge between the two extremes, by industrializing parts wich weight and dimensions allow to be carried in flat packs before being placed in work by end users.

It is therefore a bet on open industrialization in which the end user could, following instructions, build his own home.
