About Us
Alaska Adaptable Housing, based in Fairbanks, works on innovative residential building solutions and housing security research and policies for Alaska.
By developing standardized “kit-of-parts” building systems, planning for a shared online housing design innovation platform, and promoting community-led building initiatives while leveraging opportunities from the new statewide local use lumber exemption, we seek to maximize the use of local materials, expertise, and labor. AAH works closely with statewide partners on housing initiatives, research, education, and residential building projects.
Alaska Adaptable Housing is expanding on building solutions its partners developed at the Cold Climate Housing Research Center (CCHRC) and the National Renewable Energy Lab’s Alaska Campus (NREL). Alaska Adaptable Housing is a CCHRC partner focused on developing adaptable building systems as a business while continuing to work closely with CCHRC on all aspects of housing security, policy, and cold climate building science. Alaska Adaptable Housing members represent CCHRC at conferences and events, coordinate on research and projects, and are a core part of the CCHRC team.
