we're building a new kind of home design tool that's like sims and really fun to use.

customize your shape, size, doors, and our system will automatically generate the best interior layout based on your dimensions, with an all-in price for the entire project.

starting to roll out soon. built with @threejs.

the @typefive home building operating system is officially patented, and it's an honest blueprint for anyone to create the housing company of the future

[Tim Thimmaiah @thingsinmotion]

one of the coolest parts of this is the intelligence layer we built to figure out the best regulatory approach that makes building your home financially feasible in California

access to the information on where, how, and what can be built is important to unlock more housing where people actually want to live

[Tim Thimmaiah @thingsinmotion]

living near your friends is one of the best life upgrades you can make

excited to launch our partnership with @livenearfriends that paves a way for anyone to create a friend compound using new missing-middle laws and our new infill design system @typefive
