Cosa fa boxouse

Boxouse is the product of curiosity and mishap by Luke and Heather. They build beautiful, sustainable, portable, affordable houses for everyone. Inspired by portable, modular shipping containers and fed up with paying rising rents in San Francisco for non ideal housing they set out to redefine the landscape in which they lived and rethink housing for modern aspirations. Boxouse started on a vacant lot in 2013 and quickly grew into a community of friends who all shared a common goal of experimenting with sustainability and building. They still run all their production out of beautiful Oakland California. Their catalogue offers a variety of houses from minimal to a luxe edition with wheels, solar and full utilities.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We build portable, modular homes that are affordable and sustainable. Our houses come in different editions ranging from minimal to luxe, complete with wheels, solar power, and full utilities. They're designed for people frustrated with high rents and the lack of housing options in places like San Francisco.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in Oakland, CA, and the company is based here as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose Oakland because it's where we started building and running production - it's a community where sustainability and experimental building fit naturally.
