INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Tiny houses are all the rage, but once you put more than a few people in one you have a problem: Where can you go from thereNowhere
Exactly.What you do is, if you need that extra push over the cliff, you know what you do Talk to Brian Gaudio
Gaudio is the founder of Module Housing, an incremental-building startup from Pittsburgh
Gaudio, formerly of Walt Disney Imagineering, has an architecture background and saw firsthand the need for incremental housing in his work
in Biloxi and Latin America
His idea is simple: create a little house that grows with you over time, allowing a single room to turn into a mansion with a few turns of a
dwellings and work with you to order the modules, find land that lets you add on over time and assemble the houses
Like the Craftsman houses of old, you have a few basic styles, but in this case you can buy a one-bedroom Nook house for $212,000 and then
add on over time instead of buying a house with seven rooms and realizing you only needed two.Additional costs include building a foundation
company has raised $1.2 million so far and they have prototype houses in Pittsburgh
