Our Mission

To make it possible for all people to live in beautiful, sustainable, and enduring communities that promote connection and human flourishing. 

Our Vision

The second half of the 20th century gave us mega-cities and suburbs shaped by vast, centralized systems—power grids, highways, treatment plants, retail plazas, and bricks-and-mortar healthcare and education. These options have created excessive car dependency, sprawl, and ever-rising costs.

The 21st century offers another, more human path. Emerging technologies will allow communities to become more self-sufficient: local energy production and storage, satellite internet for remote work, learning, and healthcare, on-demand delivery of basic goods, sustainable agriculture, and communal water and waste systems. While these communities will still connect to wider infrastructure networks, they will be able meet more of our daily needs locally, at comparable cost, with greater resilience, than the current system.

This new approach will combine these emerging technologies with the fundamental principles of “Traditional Neighbourhood Development”. The result will be walkable, human-scale communities with a strong sense of place: a wide range of home types, a few shops and restaurants, access to nature, and deeper bonds between neighbours. Places where life feels more connected, meaningful, and enduring—rooted in timeless values, and enabled by modern technology.

At Golden Age, we build the foundations of this future.

How do we get there?

It will take time to build capacity and prove the viability of our long term vision.

Here’s our 5 point plan to get there:

  1. Build and refine our factory, design system, and assembly protocols. Initial output capacity will be one house per day.

  2. Release products that compete in the market today by solving the speed, sustainability, and cost challenges of third party builders and developers.

  3. Partner with landowners, governments, and corporations to build prototype communities that test out different aspects of our long term vision.

  4. Influence policy and public perception by proving that these communities are technically possible, economical, and desirable.

  5. Scale.
