While that original challenge was ultimately unsuccessful, the experience has stuck with me for years, and I felt like maybe the time has come once again to dust it off and go through the exercise again.Īt BOKA Powell, we have these cultural and task-focused groups called MOR groups and they are basically special interest clubs that allow people to participate in activities that might be outside their scope of daily activities. I found myself explaining why modern design costs so much and what looked to them like a reduced amount of construction, was actually an extremely high level of execution.
Most of the people who reached out to really wanted to know where they could find this “golden unicorn” because they wanted something like what they saw in various shelter magazines and a) couldn’t find it in the market, and b) wanted to spend $100/square foot to get it … which they felt was reasonable. But before we unbox all that, I need to address the interest that the original Modern House challenge generated … probably because I called it a “low cost” modern house challenge – emphasis on the low cost. Today we are going to talk about something that I am doing up at my office that is a voluntary sort of side hustle – meaning, it’s not officially “work” (meaning it has no obligations associated with it and participation is not a requirement) but it still has some value and is a sanctioned activity for all that do decide to participate.

It was August 10 th, 2010 when I first conceived of the “Low-Cost Modern Home Challenge” with the intent to go through a design process that would help us understand how to design a modern house that people could afford and would actually want to live in … and what I learned was that this is almost impossible to achieve.
