Thank you Magnus for providing us with a beautiful and energy efficient home design.
We will be building the first SMBI CLT home using the UMBS (Universal Modular Building System). See a project that was built in 2008 on Russell Island at https://www.goevolve.com.au/project-4-1
The UMBS is an attractive, cost competitive and superior built form. These claims are substantiated by the fact that QUT (Queensland University of Technology) obtained a grant from the QLD government to source the best modular building system in the world. The chosen system called UMBS designed by Icelandic born Magnus G. Bjornsson happened to be found locally in Brisbane. Subsequently UMBS was invited to be associated with IFE (Institute of Future Environments) who are the commercial arm of QUT. IFE has a mission to bring together mutually fitting company-innovations into clusters for cooperation where the combination will work better than each innovation on its own. Later UMBS also teamed up with Integrated Design for Sustainable Living, which focuses on creating self-sustainable communities. This collective provides additional options for communities of 30+ homes that offer exceptionally improved standards of living.
In the future, we intend to take advantage of the options that are available for creating self-sustainable communities.
