House Port is a company whose completely new approach to home design opens up an array of possibilities for individuals interested in a custom, modern home on any budget. The concept came about initially as a personal project of sculptor and House Port CEO, Hally Thacher. Thacher sought to design a concept home that was sustainable, customizable and easy to construct. With a commitment to living green, Thacher’s efforts resulted in the creation of the first House Port (located today in Joshua Tree, California) and the establishment of House Port in 2004 after its completion.
Mission: EASE
Essential
We give the owner the essential components to build the core construction of the House Port using a quick and easy construction process, which may be finished according to the owner’s custom design ideas.
Affordable
The House Port is an affordable, alternative to business–as–usual, traditional stick-built housing. Although it has the advantages of being a permanent build on a solid foundation, it is easy, quick, and less expensive to build because the prefabricated wall and roof systems help to eliminate expensive labor. Also, by shipping the components flat packed from locations as local as possible to the construction site, fuel costs are kept to a minimum. And there’s less waste.
Spacious
Not only do we offer substantial interior space by creating two Cubes, we extend the owner’s space by the addition of the House Port. This design does not have to adhere to factory dimensions, which allows for optimum freedom within a prefabricated format.
Environmental
The House Port is fabricated with non-toxic, recyclable, eco–friendly materials. Additionally, the simple design has a low impact on the landscape. It is also conducive to the use of any green materials or options (ie., solar panels) the owner may wish to incorporate in the custom finishing, as well as new technology like electric car chargers and battery power walls.
