Muretta Prefab Hybrid System: Remote Housing at $850-1,200/m² (material and design installation not included)
Remote construction doesn't have to mean budget blowouts. Here's how we deliver architect-designed cabins at 40% below conventional remote build costs:
The Formula
→ Steel frame: $200-350/m²
→ Glulam timber: $150-280/m² (FSC-certified, CNC-cut)
→ SIP panels: $180-260/m² (EPS/OSB core, R-40 equivalent)
→ Hardware/glazing: $200-300/m² (system windows, structural bolts)
Total : $730-1,190/m² depending on finish spec.
Why This Works
• Factory precision cuts waste by 30%
• 7-day on-site assembly vs. 6-month stick build
• SIP envelope reduces HVAC loads 50%—critical for off-grid solar
• Modular design: Start with 50m² studio, expand to 200m² compound
The Catch
Remote logistics add 15-25% (shipping, crane, local crew). Foundation separate. But you're still landing complete weather-tight shells at $850-1,200/m² all-in—versus $2,000-3,500/m² for equivalent site-built in mountain/remote zones.
Built for: Developers, hospitality operators, off-grid residential. Anywhere skilled labor is scarce and weather windows are narrow.
