Welcome to the WikiHouse Hardware Google Group!

WikiHouse is an open source construction system. The aim is to make it possible for anyone to design, share and download homes which are adapted to their needs and can be cheaply ‘printed’ and assembled without formal construction skills or tools. This Group is specifically focused on developments in the WikiHouse hardware and structural system.

If you are a WikiHouse user, architect, designer, or maker with ideas for improvements to the current WikiHouse construction system, or have proposals for new related components, tools, or construction methods, then please feel free to get involved!
