About Us: 2 Hour House Leadership

Two Hour House began with an idea: the construction of a traditional concrete slab home – exceeding code, built within established building requirements, approved by city inspectors at each stage, all in under 3 hours.

In planning Brian Conaway knew:

He could not use standard building techniques, they were too slow.
He needed solutions that did not exist yet.
He knew he would need a meticulous well-thought out process to coordinate an army of volunteers.
He knew he would have to have everyone watch the video all at the same time as a group to motivate them.

But...

Then they watched the video of the previous world record to believe it could be done.

And...

Then they exceeded code in 2 hours 52 minutes

They set a new WORLD RECORD for building a house.

579 volunteers all COLLABORATED to achieve an extraordinary goal . Success lay in a number of key areas:
