Alternative Building Techniques

Does anyone know of any companies in the United States that are taking an innovative approach to homebuilding or construction in general?

The traditional site build method (building and assembling everything on site) seems ripe for innovation to reduce costs, especially in the current construction climate (construction is crazy expensive at present). 

I've heard of BOXABL (https://www.boxabl.com/), which is pretty interesting. Anyone know of any companies that are doing innovative stuff like this?

3D printing?


Cheers,

Chris

Thanks for the input Bruce. As a homebuilder myself, I see where you're coming from. Just wondering if anyone knows of any companies that are innovating in this space. Who do you know that's thinking differently in the building space?

Crazy to me we've been building houses basically the same way for over 100 years! There's got to be a different way to think about this
