Superb Crew: “We are currently fabricating at WoHo Lab a prototype building that we are planning to replicate in the Boston area in 2021. This will be a great way to get stakeholders familiarized with our system, the high levels of quality and the ease of assembly and inspection. Our plan is to select a […]

“At WoHo we are front-loading the building design and engineering process for architectural and environmental benefit. We are bringing the insight and knowledge of respected experts to collaborate with our in-house team assessing our products and crafting a successful path from factory to market.”

In our efforts to carefully design and engineer both products and processes, we are excited to announce our partnership with  ManufactOn. Through the usage of their SaaS platform, we are looking forward to planning, tracking, and optimizing the construction and delivery processes of our buildings, achieving the highest levels of coordination and transparency.

WoHo’s pitch, presented by co-founder and CEO Israel Ruiz at The Engine’s 2020 Tough Tech Summit, can be now watched online.

Why is there such a gulf between innovation in building materials and the process by which these materials are assembled into functional structures? Why is it that most […]

TechCrunch: MIT’s former treasurer Israel Ruiz along with architects Anton Garcia-Abril of MIT and Debora Mesa of Georgia Tech have joined together on a startup called WoHo (short for “World Home”) that’s trying to rethink how to construct a modern building by creating more flexible “components” that can be connected together to create a structure.

Partnership with LafargeHolcim will assist WoHo’s mission to reimagine architectural design, engineering, manufacturing and construction for more sustainable, longer-lasting buildings.
