WHAT MAKES sam ATTAINABLE?
affordable. economical. enduring.
sam isn’t another modular house bauble for the well-heeled. sam revives the original spirit of modernism – using the technology of the times to better our lives. A century ago, a group of European architects recognized the possibility of integrating mass production with traditional craft as a means of providing well-designed homes and furnishings to the working class. The architectural movement they pioneered – modernism – became synonymous with hip style, yet the design-for-everybody altruism was largely abandoned.
Which brings us to 2010, where a simple plywood chair retails north of $625 in tony stores with names suggesting their products are within anyone’s grasp.
sam leverages common carpentry skills to build smarter healthy homes quicker. The simplicity of the design and process means sam comes within reach of all sorts of people in all sorts of locations. sam dispenses with unnecessary labor, materials, and space, favoring classic simplicity over fussy clutter. From lake front property to inner city neighborhoods to suburban enclaves, sam’s at home.
Builders admire sam. The ease of the system shortens construction times, which drives framing costs down without sacrificing energy efficiency or quality. Homeowners like sam. Clever details have been integrated so owners won’t be handcuffed to expensive yearly maintenance. DIYers adore sam. A straightforward building to construct, sam allows even the hesitant weekend warrior to convert time and sweat equity into wealth. In rocky times, sam makes a sound investment.
sam doesn’t believe attainable solely means a low initial price. That’s short sided thinking, only considering one aspect of home ownership. sam’s low-maintenance exteriors, durable windows and doors protected by generous overhangs, and copious insulation translate to low operating costs. sam is attainable today, attainable in 2040 – classic always. That’s what modernism intended.
