She is eloquent but not technically very sound. There is no combustion in the sewage treatment system. Only digestion. No solar energy converter but inverter, etc
I’d love to get my hands on the Bill of Material for all these new houses! We can’t keep importing everything from China, time to start manufacturing either in Naija or in a neighbouring country
Good idea however the government policies, taxation system, power deficit/power cost, consistency in material sourcing, even consistent material supply, will ALL ensure local manufacture is way more expensive… speaking from experience…
This video really excites me because am a black female architect based in Southern Africa and got certification to design using light weight steel. She may have used a Chinese company but the best places to source the machinery is FrameCAD or Scottsdale both based in New Zealand. You can order your machine and they give you training so you can hire locals and teach them that technology. I hope more people open up to this type of construction. It's definitely the way to go!
The lady did a wonderful job presenting the house. This technology can be a game changer for Africa. Imagine building a house in 3 days. This is impressive. Keep up with the good work…Africa is slowly transforming itself.
This prefab/ 3 day house timeline is potentially a game changer IF and only IF we are able to source 80% or more of the building materials in Nigeria. Otherwise, I cannot sign off on an "imported house" when we already have ample materials on ground to build our houses. Certain fixtures being imported are understandable (e.g., lighting and doors) but the vast bulk of the materials must be sourced in Nigeria to protect our housing industry and enhance job growth in this vital sector of the Nigerian economy.
As an American, living in America I agree with you! The housing industry for any nation is a vital source of economic advancement for those who choose to get involved.
I don't know, I'm not into construction but some things she said weren't true, For example, I would think for sustainability you would have the tank at the top rather than using an energy-powered pressure pump. Make use of the free kinetic energy gravity gives you. Secondly, those air purifiers kill bacteria, not viruses, Covid is a virus.
@@NnamdiNw when you say at the top to make use of free kinetic , did you took in consideration to cost of a system to carry the weight ? Compare to the cost of equipment ?
@@MarcStephanNkouly Please explain what you mean by the cost of equipment vs the cost of a system to carry the weight, are you saying a few steel bars to hold the tank at the top is more expensive than a pressure pump that continually pumps water into the house? My point is that it doesn’t seem to be a better option as advertised, plus if the water is coming from a general estate supply, there is already water pressure that would be high enough to put the water at the top.
@@NnamdiNw first the type of Steel used does not permit to carry a high weight. Now the house is having 6 bedrooms not to talk of kitchen and laundromat. Nevertheless you also have to look at the Design and their target customers. They're not looking for poor people (excuse me the terms). That being said their aim is first to demonstrate technology and even if they had to use a different system to carry the water tank it would had affected the design of the house. meanwhile their objective is to create something that reduce dependency to the external world. Also remember they're having a sewages system with another tank (underground). The house is more to demonstrate technology innovation than to reduce cost.
Great video but the biggest question, I'm sure, on everyone's mind didn't get answered. HOW MUCH would it cost to build a home like this in Nigeria ??????
Indeed the presentation was nice. But if you look between the lines you'll see the lies and deceit. She was very evasive in answering some questions and only gave information which she was trained to give, to lure people into another network marketing scheme. In the end, they didn't try to sell you a house, they tried to sell you a membership plan. No cost information on the house itself or how you can build one. Only how you can be a member and recruit other members. 😆
This is the most interesting video I've seen as regards real estate. And the lady! She knows what she's doing. She delivered excellently. Thank you for bringing this to us Steven
@@StevenNdukwu l certainly loved this video I'm from Zambia how can I get the materials used, the engineers, builders and archecture I'm building next year.
Great to see that people are thinking of ways to treat sewage and reuse it rather than just dumping it in the ocean. These are big projects that the government's should be spending money and researching. With a population of over 200 million we can't just keep dumping our sewage in the sea, that is just a ticking time bomb in the making.
Damn this house looks good! Can’t wait to move over to Africa soon. Matter fact we need more construction workers in Africa so we can keep this up. Great work Nigeria!
This is the future of housing in Africa. The Germans have been doing this all over the world for a while. Brilliant presentation too - the lady's cadence is soothing to the ears.
The Europeans are doing all sorts of things that Africa has not caught on about yet. Hempcrete, Aircrete, Precious Plastic a cooperative that has open source plans on how to convert plastics into build blocks that fit together like Legos. Cork Cladding, Rammed Earth, All Bamboo built homes. Africa get with the program, all of the knowledge to create buildings out of these materials are on RU-vid.
Absolutely love this house and the woman presenting it! It’s great to see sustainable and modern houses being built in Africa, rather than it being solely a YT people thing (I’m from the UK and Black people aren’t represented in the sustainable housing industry so forgive my ignorance). It would be great to see the materials coming from Nigeria and other African countries though as there’s more than enough, plus the skills and labour to go with it.
12.20.23 Wow I have to show my husband this. He's Nigerian and I've been telling him about this lifestyle and had no idea it was a thing over there. When he gets here 🇺🇸 we do have plans for a sustainable container home. I've been into prefab homes for a while and believe this type of home is good for the environment (recycling, less cutting of trees, etc.) Thank you, I love this video a lot
Chinese companies really don't use their heads when it comes to real estate development. Affordable housing is where the demand is in Nigeria, not housing for the 1%
u need a steel industry 4 dat..Naija is not a serious country. for over 5 decades they have sabotaged the ajaokuta steel industry together with the west.Polical will is needed to make this affordable to more ppl.
All I'm thinking about is how this could be mass produced to tackle the housing deficit in Lagos. Instead of building for the select few. Strip down all the extras. Design a nice 3bed at 15-20m excluding land. I would be interested by them
I don’t think there’s a house deficit in Lagos, there’s just greedy developers who hike house prices because of profits. There are so many empty brand new houses that the average Nigerian cannot even afford to rent talk more of buying.
@@StevenNdukwu crazy how everyone is trying to blame Developers who are actually trying to help with the housing sector… something the government don’t care about …. Imagine using personal funds to buy land a land build houses and people expect you to sell for 5m when the cost alone is crazy.
@@augustacookeygam5579 I agree with you..but in Nigeria 🇳🇬 the government don't seem to work for or care about the people because there should be government funded housing for the people...it's done in other countries
I want a house like this. Sturdy, renewable, green energy, new and amazing. I'm impressed that it took 80 hours for the house to be completed. To be honest with you mostly everybody do brick and mortar with slight insulation and forms of metal and they will assemble houses with bamboo poles around the house, so seeing this house to me and is inspiring because it just opens up a new wave of imagination and the house looks awesome I always want to go ahead and save the planet anyway I can. This right here is an excellent video.
@@ifehansson2254 which kind of German are you talking about? Most houses in Germany are operating on old-time technologies. Perhaps you may find some out-of-the-world techno types in isolated places. But in general, most houses in Germany are old, take it or leave it.
@@ifehansson2254 Hi ife....I live presently in Germany for decades now....believe this technology that is applied in this house is not common here. I haven't been opportuned to see one here. This is fact. Thanks though
Super impressive how smart and green this house is. A little concern though, the interior design could need a little work to increase its wow factor. All the same, beautiful house
Damn Steven this kinda housing is the future for specific locations only it will work massively for Nigeria because our weather isn't violent and extreme
Love steven reaction to the sewerage system haha.. Great to see homes in Africa doing this recycling waste , this happens in some cities in Australia, I also liked her explanation of why she's doing it and she's 100% correct.
@ Steven Ndukwu, very Impressive. Nigeria is doing some good real estate Infrastructure development, in 21st century technology. Greetings from Detroit Michigan United States
I love the embedded modern technologies especially the implementation of renewable energy and the light steel construction of the house. This is top notch and should be fully embraced in the real estate industry in Africa. Cheers 🥂🍾
What are you really embracing? Look behind the curtain and see what it is you’re “buying” - this is your doom. The house is NOT built with any architectural elements, it is cold and ugly and makes no sense. The company that owns this is Chinese and I bet everyone involved is Chinese save this girl that is doing the sales. The light steel is just a lower grade of steel and still requires Carbon and Iron, so more mining, more large scale deforestation and environmental degradation in the name of Green. This is just a green washed lie. You’d be better off growing large scale SPF for residential construction and harvesting every ten years than this non-sense. What she doesn’t tell you in her lies is that brick only causes heat-loss at the seams where the R values are low, so things like windows and doors otherwise masonry is a great building material and this is readily available in Africa. You just have to use higher R-value doors and windows to pair with masonry that already has very high R-values, compared to manufactured board laced with plastics that China so cleverly wants to recycle as a building material. The plastic is not as breathable and over time is leaking chemicals into your HVAC system due to the science of heating and contraction. Nigeria has no environmental protection standards, so there are no Nigerian scientists that are regulating this, the Chinese just sneak this in containers and boom 💥 you bug, cause it’s so ADVANCED. If this takes off the Chinese just get richer, Africa loses its natural resources that with the coming tide air will become more valuable than gold - this is why the EU is growing it’s forests by 40% in the next 50 years. The worst SIN of all is that when you use foreign Architects and Engineers, you by-pass local talent. Nigeria has these professionals in spades. This brain drain means that the 10 labourers she so easily paraded are permanently at the bottom of the food chain. If you had a Nigerian Architect and Engineer mentor 10 Nigerian labourers you would end up with 10 Nigerian construction companies. The Chinese are just going to make you feel worthless and a lesser class in your own country. The technology they bring you, they learnt from somewhere else yet they proudly scribble their Chinese script on it and program in Chinese etc. This will kill your economy as it doesn’t allow for indigenous integration. I wouldn’t be surprised if this guy is being paid for the video. Elevate if you are, become a crusader to save yourself as RU-vid will pay you either way, investigate what is happening to you before it’s too late. This girl is a snake charmer, she is promoting Chinese colonialism at the expense of an “elevated class”. This house is a callous ugly structure designed by disrespectful Chinese to sell their products and further their interests in Africa. Masonry is sustainable, develop these mechanical systems yourself locally and multiply economy from a $0.5T to $5T powerhouse. This is how the USA learnt to do it in the Gilden Age, this is how China learnt to do it from the Americans. Don’t learn from the Chinese, there are better ways and better systems. Smarten up. Don’t let under educated people lie to you simply because you’re not as educated as they are.
@@playapreez If you take your time to look at the official website of the company, you would find out that Nigerian trained professionals built the house. I would advise you carry your smarten up comment elsewhere and don't bring your negativity around here. Be warned! 👑🦁
@@DavidOA_Businessman09 How very woke of you. If that is all you found glaringly wrong with what I had to say, then carry on. I assume the king and lion emoji are in reference to yourself, and you're so involved in that delusion that this "marketing" is tailor made for people like you. Nigeria has a population of 150M with a GDP of $500M. You're not going to get very far in elevating yourselves with a GDP per Capita of $2000.00. But so long as you are an elevated class and your net worth is $1M per year. From your command of English and the way you put your sentences together, I won't be remise in my assumption that the uneducated rich guy stereotype is what you ascribe to. You have warned me, "lion king" - stupid people are very dangerous. As you were!
@plaYaprez ® I would advise you to keep your unwanted and unneeded comments to yourself. If you want to advise the government on what to do; you go and meet them yourself and do just that. Meanwhile, a simplistic way to increase the GDP per capita of a nation is to be more productive which would positively affect the buying power of the citizens as the more productive a society is, the more wealthy it becomes with massive investment opportunities in infrastructure, entrepreneurship, ideas and a lot more. And yes I am the lion king and we Africans must be producers instead of consumers. I am very woke! 👑🦁😎
What is African Architecture about this? This is a pre-fab house from China. Or you are surprised that they were smart enough to assemble it? That is what we call the soft bigotry of low expectations.
This is not a new architectural fit. Houses in America are built in the same format but the difference is that what we have here are built with weather specifications and are more vulnerable than the one in this video. It definitely is a great innovation but on a higher standard than the ones here in America. Kudos to the builders.
Bullet proof windows? I'm serious about security so I'm all for it lol For the door, I just want a dumb door... Give me a key and that's it. Anything else can be hacked in my opinion
Wow, this is not an ordinary lady showcasing an extraordinary house. And the house is not for an average Joe to own. Thanks, Stev, for bringing such a high-tech house to the world to see.
Impressive all around! That lady is a natural salesperson. Take it from this retired new homes marketer. She has first rate passion for her profession, something every elite salesperson MUST have!! Passion cost nothing but sells everything! She can succeed anywhere with her skills!! Nigerians are very dexterious!!
If those are OSBs that were used to cover the steel framing then I doubt if it will be cheaper. OSB and in fact all engineered boards cost a whole lot. She did mention it's for the elite. That settled, it doesn't solve the main housing issue we have here.
@@Laura-sg6ss You make a cement slurry. You can make it sand +cement as well. Then you use a foam generator with dish soap to create a thick foam. You mix the foam into the cement. You can go 18 inches high (deep) at one time. It takes about 2 weeks to fully cure. But you can do secondary pours in as soon as a few hours. It does not have the compressive strength of concrete. However, it is fireproof, bulletproof, rodent proof, waterproof, and give a very high insulation value. You can literally premade panels that are a meter by 3 meters by 25 cm and a single person can lift them into place. It is very lightweight and can be saved and drilled like wood. Great product.
Wow what an excellent presentation from the lady. She's well informed, eloquent and to the point... She made me understand every aspect of what she showcased.. In fact she explained like she would be talking to a 5 year old kid.. She just made me feel proud as an African.....
As a construction professional, i will take this with a mixed feeling. Why? Because although one could start and finish a project fast, the labour market will suffer (lesser jobs opportunities). I have seen this trend growing especially in developed countries especially in Germany but honestly, most professionals are really not happy because they see their jobs on the line. But anyway, technology is the future. Any young person reading this should make sure that they are technically trained in order to find jobs in the fast growing technology world take over.
Great content!!! Kudos to you Steven for digging out this amazing concept in real estate development. And the lady representative was excellent. This system has great potential.
Last time I checked sustainable buildings. I saw that the developed countries are making 3D printed buildings and the goal is to make it affordable to most consumers. This is purely profit driven. Do something affordable and put a reasonable price tag over conventional building.
I like to see what Africa is doing in this location. The houses look nice if we can get everybody in the world living to this status we’ll see a great change world wide
Love from Canada 🇨🇦! Please, will there be more affordable packages to buy into? And in the future, would you guys be expanding to Ghana? The house is dope! And the level of ingenuity is impeccable! Would love to invest in something like this. This is great for Africa 😃
Mr Steven clearly adjusting to the techno ideas, and in disbelief for the most part, giggling n just taking it all in. As for the beautiful lady, very well informed with the stuff, well outspoken n very comfortable through out the presentation. In America, most houses are not built with bricks, and have great longevity. Honestly, so satisfying to watch this video. Thumbs up, n good day folks. Love from Namibia💖
Lagos is not the only city in Nigeria, all these developers should move inland to other states and cities. Right now Lagos is congested reason why Abuja was built.
Amazing and impressive innovative processes and project. Viable use cases for our country and the challenges we face. The lady is on top of her game! I refuse to sit in the same room with her if she is selling even ordinary air and I haven’t done my weekly shopping yet! Omo, enu e dun! 😁🤣 Kilodeeeeee…Incidentally she actually sold us air in the video ke,🥴🤔 chai, she got me already😜 Kudos to her and the project though 🙌🏾🙌🏾
This is very interesting. A young lady with big dreams.I like the fact that the house is energy efficient. The world is moving into clean green energy and I hope the corrupt government of Nigeria can learn from this young lady, since we have brainless politicians in every institution.
This top notch innovation in building industry in Nigeria and also renewable energy is a plus.Steve you keep bringing best content ,great to keep it up.Please can I get the company's info to contact the project manager.
I enjoyed this video and yes it is all possible to have a house in 3days because of the prefabricated components and dry materials of construction. I am currently studying Sustainability Management and Real estates and this is my core area of interest. I feel so much joy watching this as it as though I was in my Sustainable design and planning class. Please I will appreciate if i can connect with the company and the host. Kudos to the team
whoever started this, please continue and improve on it, we see these ingenious ideas all over the world wither out, please we need this to continue and become widespread, cost of building now is terrible, I would use your services readily and very rapidly
I will describe this house as modern, smart, intelligent, spacious. I agree, it's sustainable. I also love the implementation of renewable energy system, which will go/ work towards a greener and cleaner environment/planet. Kudos to the workmen/ builders, engineers who were part of this fascinating project. Our young people are using their ideas, talents and knowledge to create better and easier standard of living. Well done! Great video Steven, thanks. I have learnt so much from looking at your RU-vid channel/videos and got some good ideas in terms of further property development/investment.👏👏
Wow.. This lady literally killed the video.. like she broke every single details into pieces. the expression, the voice, the hype.. I mean its everything for me. Thumbs up to her💯 Big shout out to you Steve great content as always.. But aren't you guys allowed to give out the cost of the house for possible buyers or is it just you have to be a member kinda thing..? Would like to know.💯..
@@akejuifeoluwa4632 Absolutely right! This is an over-priced piece of tech. A regular house can be fitted with most of these technologies and still save more than 50% of the cost. My house in Canada is under $2 million and gives me much more value than this.
@steven ndukwu I think some of the confusion may come from including the word cheap in the video title, so many viewers attention was focused on hearing just how affordable the solution is (including myself). Thank you for clarifying that the point of the video was the solution itself
This is why houses collapse in Nigeria, especially Lagos. As a structural engineer, you need to give the foundation time to dry, and make sure there are no cracks in the concrete before you proceed. Why rush? Cement and concrete needs time to dry before packing more pounds of steel and wood, not forgetting the roofing weight. No government regulation obviously. Keep playing with people's lives. Revisit Femi 4score's building that collapsed. 🤔
Yet another great video episode. I have one question, I understand the entire dwelling was fabricated in 3 days (MASSIVELY IMPRESSIVE) what about the interior? ALL in all From the finalization of the contracts to the actual move-in date what is the total timeline? Thanks in advance for any and all assistance and keep being a PLAYMAKER!!!
Very interesting well presented video.The house itself is beautifully presented and the smart technology is well thought out.It would be wonderful if this type of construction could be adapted for low cost housing for those on a budget.It is not often one sees a positive story about Lagos and Nigeria in general so well done to you all.As for the young lady all I can say is I wish I was 40 years younger she is stunning .
This looks great for a modern day building and I'd like to own one myself the materials used seam way more durable than our normal concrete and sand mixtures.
Men, this is beautiful. First, I saw your video on the Landmark Hotel & Resort few mins ago and now this? Mehn.your work is commendable. And as for this building, it's just mesmerising! A sure way to "invest in our planet".
I just had to subscribe to this channel after watching this video and wondered where has this been? Wow the level of detail put into this home and portrayed by black excellence was absolutely enjoyable to watch and see the latest technology in AFRICA!! One day I hope I am able to leave the soil of Canada and return to the continent with the purchase of the latest home. And Blessings to the Beautiful Queen for show cashing the lovely house design and the Handsome King for making a video and capturing Africa in a positive light!! Well done!! and looking forward to seeing more designs!
That lady should add adept to her last name, I mean this literally. Her corporal analytic expression embodies so much proficiency and over-confidence in all aspects. I haven’t had a brain freeze running out of adjective in a very long time but I did after this video . Steve, what’s her name and can you please send the link to her page ? . Thank you !.
