DWR Prefab
Why Kithaus?
Designed by Tom Sandonato and Martin Wehmann, this 9'x13' structure redefines conventional
prefab with its proprietary clamping system that makes installation quick, economic and
practically waste-free. What also caught our attention about Kithaus is how it can tuck into
any area, even remote locations, without needing ultra heavy equipment. All of the light-
weight, anodized aluminum pieces are pre-cut and drilled in Southern California and shipped
to you for on-site assembly. Installation is fast, taking only a few days, and Kithaus is built
with eco-friendly components. Wondering where you can use Kithaus? How about anywhere
you need a fully insulated, pre-wired comfortable space.
In addition to the physical structure, DWR offers furnished packages that have been space-
planned for maximum functionality. Kithaus is available exclusively through Design Within Reach.

heavy equipment.
When will I receive my Kithaus? Delivery varies depending on the location of your site,
but generally you will receive your Kithaus in 4–6 weeks.
How can I use Kithaus? There are countless residential and commercial possibilities,
such as an office, extra bedroom, artist studio, yoga room, dining pavilion, kids’ playroom,
meeting space, hotel bungalow or a leasing office for new developments.
What are the “green” aspects of Kithaus? Recyclable aluminum; FSC-certified wood;
dual-glazed windows and doors; insulated walls, ceiling and floor; minimal waste from
assembly; flat-pack shipping for reduced packaging materials; minimal impact to surrounding
landscape. A solar package is available for Kithaus; contact us for information.
How much does it cost? The complete Kithaus, including decks, canopies and louvers,
is $49,456. (A base model is available for $32,450.) Prices do not include shipping,

H 10' W 18' D 14' (with decks); H 10' W 13' D 9' (without decks). A foundation
is unnecessary in most areas, and because installation does not require any ultra
heavy equipment, it’s not necessary to clear-cut trees or landscaping to provide
access for such vehicles. This gives you a lot of freedom in choosing the location
and orientation of your Kithaus.
