Octolithic The Two
Concrete panelCannot be ordered todayOur kitOctolithic ↗
The Two, a concrete panel kit from Octolithic, is published at $39,000 to $69,000 for the kit and covers 689 square feet.
Octolithic does not publish a wind rating or a snow load for this model, so 44 percent of the fields we score are blank.
None of that tells you whether it works on your land. Wind, snow, seismic and flood performance are site specific engineering, so the only useful answer comes from running this kit against your address.
Completeness
56 percent of the fields we score are backed by something Octolithic published. Why completeness is never part of the grade.
Conflict of interest
Kit Home Finder's owner, Jeremy Vest, also owns this maker. It is listed here because leaving it out would be its own kind of dishonest. It gets no forgiveness for missing data, it cannot be ordered through this site, and you can hide every kit we own with one switch on the Index. Our scoring code cannot read a commission rate on any kit, including this one.
The thing nobody else will tell you
This kit cannot be scored on its own. Nothing on this page tells you whether it works on your land.
Wind, snow, seismic and flood performance come from your address, not from this kit. Put in an address and the gates run against the real requirement at that point.

The Kit Home Finder Grade
| Buyability weight 25 | Not rated Not enough published to rate ordering. We need to know whether you can place an order, plus at least two of the price, the lead time and where they deliver. |
|---|---|
| Cost honesty weight 25 | 85 publishes a price, publishes a range rather than one misleading number, itemises 8 of 14 build stages |
| Materials and carbon tier weight 15 | 40 new steel framing, a higher embodied carbon class |
Rubric v1.0, August 2026. Site fit is not in this grade, because it depends on your land rather than on the kit. Every weight, and what we refuse to grade.
What the maker publishes
Everything here came off Octolithic's own pages, cited at the bottom. A blank is a blank: we never fill one in.
| Build type | Concrete panel |
|---|---|
| Structural system | SCIP, steel reinforced concrete insulated panel, eight sided. Twenty-nine feet across. |
| Finished size | 689 sq ft |
| Bedrooms | 2 |
| Bathrooms | 1 |
| Wall R value | Published as around R-20 for an individual wall, with a claimed whole envelope figure in the R-30s and R-40s. No assembly, test method or reporting standard is named for either figure, and a whole envelope number is not comparable to a wall R-value. |
| Roof R value | Not published |
| Foundation types | Pad, a slab on grade, or raised, on a garage story or piers with an elevated floor |
| Lead time | Not published |
| Delivers to | Not published |
| Country | United States |
| Build difficulty | Specialist crew and equipment Concrete is placed on site, which needs a pump, a crew and a finisher. This is not an owner build in any ordinary sense. Read from the construction method. |
What the maker says it resists
Design capability as published. Not a certification, not a rating of your house, and not proof against anything.
| Engineered wind speed | Not published |
|---|---|
| Roof snow capability | Not published |
| Seismic | Not published |
| Fire | The site says concrete does not burn. No fire resistance rating, assembly class, standard or test is published. Ask for the tested assembly and the rating hours. |
Price
$39,000 to $69,000
This is the number the maker publishes. What it covers is in the line below, and it is almost never the finished cost of a house.
| What that number covers | Kit only, not a finished home. Published as including the eight wall and roof panels, the sprayer, mesh and tie wire, sill pans and flashing, channels for wiring and plumbing, interior wall framing, full blueprints and engineering stamps. The low figure is the pad version and the high figure is the raised version. Nothing about land, foundation work, trades, mechanical, or finishes is in either number. |

What else we found
This is the site owner's own company and it is held to the same rubric as every other maker here, with no forgiveness for what it does not publish. Orders are not open. The site says shipping late 2028 and that joining the list is free, so there is nothing to buy today and the buyability gate fails for that reason. The site describes the kit as designed for hurricanes but publishes no design wind speed, so there is no number here to compare against any other maker or against a building department requirement. Snow load, seismic and a roof R-value are not published at all.
Questions to send this maker
Generated from what they left blank. Every one of these is a thing they could answer today and have chosen not to publish. Copy them into an email. If they answer, tell us and we will update this page with the citation.
- What design wind speed is this model engineered to, in miles per hour, and at what Risk Category and Exposure Category?
- What ground snow load can the roof carry, in pounds per square foot, and is that the ground load or the roof load?
- What Seismic Design Category will you engineer this model to, and is that included or a paid upgrade?
- What is the roof R value, and is it nominal or whole assembly?
- What is the lead time in weeks from deposit to delivery, right now?
- Which states will you deliver to, and which will you not?
Across the whole Index, the average kit publishes about a quarter of what a buyer needs. This maker is at 56 percent.
Questions people ask about the Octolithic The Two
Answered from what Octolithic publishes, including the answers that are "they do not say".
How much does the Octolithic The Two cost?
Octolithic publishes $39,000 to $69,000. Kit only, not a finished home. Published as including the eight wall and roof panels, the sprayer, mesh and tie wire, sill pans and flashing, channels for wiring and plumbing, interior wall framing, full blueprints and engineering stamps. The low figure is the pad version and the high figure is the raised version. Nothing about land, foundation work, trades, mechanical, or finishes is in either number.
What wind speed is the Octolithic The Two engineered to?
Octolithic does not publish a design wind speed for this model. Only about one kit maker in ten publishes one. Note that "hurricane rated" has no legal definition in the United States, so a page using that phrase without a number has told you nothing.
What snow load can the Octolithic The Two roof take?
Octolithic does not publish a snow load for this model. Around one maker in twenty does.
Can you actually buy the Octolithic The Two?
No. Octolithic is not taking orders for this model today, whatever the renderings suggest.
What foundation does the Octolithic The Two need?
Octolithic publishes: Pad, a slab on grade, or raised, on a garage story or piers with an elevated floor
How well does the Octolithic The Two stand up to a hurricane or a wildfire?
The honest answer is what it resists, and under what conditions. No kit home is proof against either, and any page telling you otherwise is selling. "Hurricane rated" has no legal definition in the United States, no house can be tornado rated, and whole building certifications like LEED, Passive House and HERS all require a built, sited, inspected home and cannot be attached to a model from a spec sheet. What a maker can honestly tell you is what the design resists and under what conditions. For this model, they publish nothing at all.
Will the Octolithic The Two work on my land?
Nothing on any spec sheet can answer that, including this one. Wind, snow, seismic, flood and soil requirements come from your address, not from the kit. The Kit Home Finder runs every kit in the Index against the published hazard data for your point and shows you what survives and why the rest did not. It is free.
