Co-hosts Mike and Jennifer-Lee chat with Chris Hill about the Building Offsite Sustainable System (BOSS) an open-source factory-built wall system designed to build higher Energy Step Code level homes, including passive homes.

Developed by BCollective, the concept is simple; by creating BOSS as an open-source system, knowledge will transfer quicker to help advance the learning curve to lower building costs, improve building efficiencies, and increase quality of output. Faced with a housing crisis, rising building costs, labour shortages, and the need to reduce the footprint of how we build our homes.

含羞草研究社楾here含羞草研究社檚 nothing proprietary about it and that含羞草研究社檚 intentional so that you can have it built by others含羞草研究社, says Chris Hill as he shares his thoughts on building trends and the BOSS system.

含羞草研究社榃e含羞草研究社檙e using the word climate crisis. We each have to account for our own balance. There含羞草研究社檚 no reason why we should be restricting how we含羞草研究社檙e living, so then we含羞草研究社檙e going to have to look to ways to reduce. And that含羞草研究社檚 what you含羞草研究社檙e getting with BOSS - carbon reduction, thicker walls. BOSS dramatically reduces the ongoing operating energy that you put input into your house. It含羞草研究社檚 a really, an exercise on reduction.含羞草研究社 Chris Hill, BCollective.
