    Offsite innovation from a Navy SEAL

    This is episode 3 of 6 in a Deep Dive Series on the Housing Innovation Alliance! If you hear any background noise, that's because this episode was recorded LIVE at the HIA Conference 2024 at the University of Denver!  “So if I can summarize what we do, or what we’re trying to aspire to do, is make offsite construction so easy a caveman could do it.” In this conversation, Devon Tilly chats with Garrett Moore of Agorus. In football, as in life, the most important person on the field is often the least noticed – the left tackle: he protects the quarterback’s blind side.” As a quarterback at Stanford University, this simple lesson laid the early foundation for Garrett’s servant-leadership philosophy: “It’s the people you work with every day who determine your ability to make an impact”. After achieving a degree in Mechanical Engineering at Stanford, and despite an early desire to jump right into a Silicon Valley start-up after graduation, Garrett’s passion to serve led him to San Diego to become an officer in the Navy SEALs. During this time, he was also selected to become an Olmsted Scholar (similar to a Rhodes Scholarship). After learning Hebrew from scratch, he earned his master’s degree in Cybersecurity at Tel Aviv University…in Hebrew! Living there in Startup Nation, he learned another critical lesson, “Never underestimate the power of a small group of committed people to change the world.” You might see two common denominators in these life shaping experiences – a love of high performing teams and fearlessness in the face of challenges. Garrett and his co-founder Kyle run headlong into the fray when most would hesitate. “If a problem is too hard for everyone else, it’s probably just right for us”. And for that reason, he is wholly committed to solving America’s elusive housing crisis. Garrett is married to his childhood sweetheart and loves to spend time with his family. It’s no surprise that he’s also an extreme sports guy, snowboarding, mountain biking and e-foiling whenever he can. By the way, don’t ever get suckered into a ping pong game with him. It won’t go well for you.  AGORUS LinkedIn AGORUS Instagram AGORUS ONE Build - Tucson, AZ Project Timelapse Keep up with the Art of Construction (AOC) podcast on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Youtube!

    Building with community input

    This is episode 2 of 6 in a Deep Dive Series on the Housing Innovation Alliance! If you hear any background noise, that's because this episode was recorded LIVE at the HIA Conference 2024 at the University of Denver!  “For me, it’s starting with innovating from that bottom-up piece where it’s getting the people who are going to be affected by these changes and by these designs into the conversation as early as possible.” In this conversation, Devon Tilly chats with Brent Forsberg about community inclusion in development plans! Brent Forsberg has been active in real estate sales, investing, and development for 22 years in the Greater Lansing area. Currently, he is the President of TA Forsberg Inc, a firm with over 60 years of experience in road and sewer construction, and land development specializing in residential and light commercial and professional office.  Brent has led the sales teams of several large residential developments in the Greater Lansing and is a licensed broker involved in Forsberg Real Estate Company. T.A. Forsberg, Inc.’s projects have provided residential home sites for more than 1000 families within its premier lifestyle neighborhoods. He is currently involved in several urban sustainability and renewal projects within the Greater Lansing Area. Brent focuses on how to create stronger connected communities between local businesses, the arts, and residents through Place-Based Development and human-scaled design. Throughout his career, Brent has been active on many industry and non-profit boards including the National Homebuilders Sales and Marketing Council, the City of Mason Downtown Development Authority, and the Mason Chamber of Commerce Board, Lansing March of Dimes, The Lansing Economic Area Partnership (LEAP) board, and is the 2020 President of the Greater Lansing Homebuilders Association. He is also active on many committees working on transportation issues, education, workforce development, and promotion of the arts. Brent is an active speaker and has given talks, led design charrettes, and facilitated roundtables. Topics include market research, scale and design, and new home sales. Venues have included the International Homebuilders Show, the University of Michigan, Lansing Community College, many local schools, neighborhood associations, trade associations, and non-profit groups.  Personally, Brent is an avid outdoorsman enjoying alpine skiing and mountain biking with family and friends. He is an avid reader and enjoys writing as well. Brent enjoys cooking and participated in the celebrity chef auction for the March of Dimes for seven years.

    3D printing homes with recycled plastic

    This is episode 1 of 6 in a Deep Dive Series on the Housing Innovation Alliance! If you hear any background noise, that's because this episode was recorded LIVE at the HIA Conference 2024 at the University of Denver!  “When you build so much faster, less expensive, and can reduce the environmental impact - you check so many boxes.”  In this conversation, Devon Tilly chats with Gene Eidelman of Azure. From developing multifamily projects to revolutionizing the construction industry with 3D-printed homes, Gene Eidelman's journey in real estate is marked by innovation and impact. After immigrating to the US from Ukraine, Gene quickly made a name for himself, developing over 3,000 condominiums and apartments in Southern California and across the Southeastern United States. His entrepreneurial spirit didn't stop there; he launched two education startups before co-founding Azure Printed Homes in 2022. At Azure, Gene and his team are breaking new ground with a patented 3D printing process that constructs entire structures from recycled polymers. This eco-friendly method is not only 70% faster but also 30% cheaper than traditional construction, revolutionizing how we think about building homes. Since May 2023, Azure Printed Homes has been delivering units ranging from backyard studios and park models for glamping resorts and RV parks to ADUs and homes, with a focus on sustainable, affordable housing for all. Gene's commitment to making a difference extends beyond real estate. He has been recognized for his efforts in resettling 6,000 refugees from Eastern Europe and has appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show to discuss his refugee resettlement work. Gene is a sought-after speaker and thought leader in the fields of innovation, entrepreneurship, sustainability, 3D Printing, construction and real estate. He delivered a TED talk at TEDx Wilmington on the future of housing on April 27, 2024, which will be on YouTube this summer. He also appeared on TV news programs and podcasts. His work is paving the way for a future where sustainable and affordable housing is accessible to everyone. He can be contacted at gene@azureprintedhomes.com.
