011h is a Catalan startup that has developed a new construction model based on three pillars: material circularity, digitalization, and industrialization of the entire process. Its solution improves buildings’ energy performance, reduces the carbon footprint of materials used, shortens design and construction timelines, and increases quality and reliability in execution.
Founded in 2020 by Lucas Carné, José Manuel Villanueva, Josep Barberá, and Carlos Llibre, this tech company provides turnkey design and construction services for real estate developers, integrating prefabricated solutions with various materials such as wood, concrete, and lightweight metal structures. This strategy allows for diversification of suppliers and construction systems, executing processes in a controlled environment, optimizing quality, reducing construction timelines, and cutting CO₂ emissions by more than 50% compared to conventional methods—all enhanced by digitalization at every stage of the process.
011h’s value proposition focuses on delivering affordable and sustainable multifamily housing, with better-utilized spaces, faster delivery, and cost reliability.
The company’s products also stand out for higher quality, lower maintenance requirements, and 20% greater energy efficiency.
Through its digital platform, suppliers can easily integrate their products into designers’ and contractors’ workflows. The platform also includes a toolkit for architects, enabling optimal design at lower cost, reducing risks in developers’ decision-making, optimizing contracting, and improving project planning and execution.
Having completed one project per year from 2021 to 2024 for clients such as Aedas and Culmia, 011h is building four developments in 2025 and plans to start two more before year-end, totaling 520 homes and €50 million in execution. For 2026, the company already has projects committed worth €100 million.
