Building Envelope*
Ichijo’s i-cube high-quality energy-efficient building envelope system is composed of preassembled structural wall panels using kiln-dried superior quality J-Grade Lumber (less wane, knots, twists and bows), our own proprietary windows, a weather barrier, additional insulation and rainscreens. The i-cube system is individually designed for a specific floor plan with precision, and accurately installed on site. This results in a structurally sound and airtight building envelope. This system reduces your energy consumption and saves you money!

Earth Advantage® Certified
Our homes are Earth Advantage® Certified. Earth Advantage is a third-party, high-performance certification program for new single-family homes developed to assure homeowners that a certified home is energy efficient, healthy, and resource wise. This is available for Ichijo homes in the Portland area.
Double Slide
Ichijo’s own architectural grade co-extruded PVC sliding windows and patio doors are equipped with screens. Both sides of our sliding windows and patio doors are operable, providing excellent natural air flow and easy glass cleaning inside and out.
No More Hide and Seek
Our custom-made cabinets aren’t just beautiful on the outside. Each one includes efficient organizers to keep everything in view when you need it and make it disappear when you don’t. Included in all Ichijo homes are adjustable tray dividers, knife holders, spice racks, trash/recycling wagons, under cabinet lighting & earthquake safety lock cabinet door hardware.
Within Reach
o All of our homes come with Ichijo’s own high-quality, piano-finish cabinetry with full extension soft close and BLUM hardware as well as cabinet pulls on all cabinets and drawers. Our pull-down shelves eliminate the need for a step stool to reach the top shelf.
Hold the Door
It may seem like a small detail, but our magnetic doorstops are always there to offer a helping hand. These low-profile assistants conceal themselves in the floor when not in use, but they are always ready to help in a snap.
Outta Sight
Ichijo’s dual-slide doors make it easy to fill up and hide it all away. The doors slide both ways so it’s easy to reach in the corners of your closet!
Total Comfort
The Nest learning thermostat monitors your home even when you’re away, making sure you maximize comfort and energy savings.
Solar*
Many of Ichijo’s homes are solar ready so you can add solar panels with the purchase of your home or in the future. Our typical solar systems cover a third to all of the home’s energy needs.
