About The Future of Housing Initiative

The Future of Housing Initiative (FOH) is a bold collaboration of industry leaders, innovators, and researchers working together to transform how homes are designed, built, and delivered across Canada and beyond.

At its core is the Future of Housing Consortium (FOHC)—a group of advanced manufacturing, materials, and technology partners committed to solving the housing crisis with speed, scale, and sustainability. Led by Calgary-based startup Arthroto, and supported by pioneering companies such as Falkbuilt, ZS2 Technologies, Kalesnikoff Mass Timber, and the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT), the Consortium is bringing to life a replicable model for housing that is future-ready.

Our vision is to move away from fragmented, site-built construction and toward an integrated Quick Response Manufacturing (QRM) system. This approach accelerates construction timelines by up to 70% while ensuring higher quality, lower environmental impact, and homes that are climate-resilient, intelligent, and sustainable.

The Future of Housing Initiative is more than a project—it’s a movement to create scalable solutions for attainable housing, foster a new generation of skilled workers, and set a new standard for sustainable living. Together, we’re building homes that are faster, greener, and ready for tomorrow’s challenges.
