Using four prefabricated steel towers I created a design for a 3,496 sf (plus additional loft spaces), 4 bedroom "generation house". It is large enough for an extended family and the plan can be built in stages. Along with my architectural plans I will provide additional design services to customize the plan for your needs. Since I cannot "show" you what this looks like on Punaweb, you will need to email me for further information (johnmaloney3@mac.com). This is an affordable way to have a "semi-custom home by an award-winning architect. The design utilizes the strength and longevity of steel. The remaining framing materials to complete the home can be precut and prefit, then shipped directly to your site assuming normal truck and trailer access. This system is unique to the Big Island with a variant already built in Keaau and another being approved now for Kona.
We get material wholesale in California, set up the framing in the factory yard there, then disassemble, mark each piece, and ship it out with detailed assembly instructions so even Puna workers can do a world-class job with the final house.
This is the fastest and best way to make the strongest and most spacious home you can. I learned from building my own advanced homes in HPP and advising Castleblock how to build even better. I envision this home ideally sited on a typical HPP lot where it fits the 135' lot width nicely, but it could be rotated for a narrow lot as well.
The original cost of the prefab materials (the core, not ALL of the framing) was $70k. You are recycling these commercial structures (as in extremely heavy duty) so already you are going green and saving resources. I have been paid as much as $40k by my clients for house plans, and they come engineered and worked out so there is no guesswork or waste on the jobsite. For you, this is the deal: The plans and the materials as noted for $16k.
Serious inquiries only, mahalo. Your description of what you need from a house, the land you own, and your overall building budget will get an equally detailed response from me.
If you need the lot, too, we have one in central HPP with a building permit in place to begin the core structure tomorrow.
