Encouraged by the overwhelming media attention in national and international publications, and the enthusiasm of thousands who traveled far to attend the open house, Nathan Wieler decided to make the same type of housing available to other homebuyers. Thus, in addition to sparking a movement, the Wieler House is also the prototype for launching Mr. Wieler’s modern housing company, Wieler Homes. In addition, Wieler DFG, a company that Wieler started with business partner, Adam Hathcock, is developing hundreds of acres, primarily in Chatham County, North Carolina, where architect-designed modern prefab homes will be welcomed.
