Modular Construction

We have been exploring the opportunities offered by modular construction since early 2000. This included partnering with a modular manufacturer for more than five years and completing a number of modular projects. As a result, Onion Flats has extensive experience in the challenges and opportunities of modular construction. We provide consulting services in both modular planning, site suitability, financial analysis, and modular manufacturer selection.


Sustainability Consulting

Onion Flats has been a leader in sustainable design since its origin. From adaptive-reuse, renovation, to new construction, we provide a wide variety of insights in sustainability to a project team, from LEED certification, to Passive House, to common sense approaches. Our recent efforts have been focused on high-performance Building Envelopes using low-tech, affordable materials.
