Automated Architecture (AUAR)

🚀 We’ve raised £2.6M to build sustainable, affordable and beautiful homes! 🚀 Today, the world faces many big challenges. There is a huge and urgent need for affordable low-energy homes, but currently, these are expensive to build and difficult to deliver at scale. Building high quality, sustainable timber homes is hard to scale, but AUAR is here to change that. AUAR is on a mission to address these challenges by building a global ecosystem of 🤖 automated micro-factories 🤖 to deliver sustainable, affordable and beautiful homes to millions of people. AUAR offers a different vision for the built environment. Automation is not centralised into large factories. Instead, we license the company’s low CapEx robotic micro-factories and tech stack to a network of existing home builders, enabling us to deliver sustainable and affordable homes at scale. Just 1 AUAR micro-factory enables a £1m revenue creation opportunity per year for home builders, drastically reducing the risk in adopting robotics in construction. This Seed round will continue to support the growth of our existing partner network in Europe and the expansion of our operations in the US. If your company is interestd in becoming an AUAR partner, get in touch. We are also hiring across our robotics, product and marketing teams as part of the funding. Keep an eye out for job opportunities on our website! #forpeopleandplanet #gooddesign #thinkholistically #beboldberadical #buildtogether #embraceresponsibility Massive congratulations to the entire AUAR team for making this happen and bringing us to the next stage of our journey! Mollie Claypool (CEO), Gilles Retsin (CTO/Chief Architect), Bridget Hipwell (COO), Jordi Dominguez (fCFO), Ivo Tedbury (VP Automation), Kevin Saey (VP Building Systems), Danaë Parissi (Head of Software), David Dória (Software Tech Lead), Oscar Walheim (Architecture Lead), Nikos Pachis (Full Stack Dev), Brecht Reynaert (Micro-Factory Manager).

We’re thrilled to unveil AUAR’s new branding and website! 🚀 We worked with the amazing team at Ascend Studio though their Worldfirst Brand Accelerator programme who created a fresh visual identity that reflects our vision and mission: to build the tech that makes sustainable housing universally accessible. 🌍🏠 #ForPeopleandPlanet Our new brand highlights AUAR’s deep commitment to enabling the existing industry to build homes that are better for people and the planet. At the heart of what we do is #BuildingTogether because we believe real change only happens through collaboration and partnership. AUAR is building a global, automated construction ecosystem for housing. This idea of an ecosystem or distributed network is also woven into our identity. And of course, our robots building timber blocks inspired our tagline: “The Building Blocks of a Better Future.” Check our new website https://auar.io/ and let us know what you think! #AUAR #SustainableHousing #Automation #NewBrand #BuildingTogether #AscendStudio #Worldfirst
