How much is it? At our place (developing country, heavily depends on imports of everything, but private entrepreneurs somehow mastered the production of "difficult to make" bricks) a traditional 2 floor, 200 sq. meters (~2153 sq. feet) brick and mortar building with reinforced concrete belts (seismically active zone here), insulation, finishing & decoration will cost:
1. $80k if you don't want to take part. You give the money, the architect asks what you want and does the rest.
2. $40k if you hire workers for every stage of building yourself.
3. $20k if you can also make some work yourself, delegating only qualified work.
Is this technology going to be cheaper? Or is it like those California kennels for homeless $40k apiece?
