Building Minds, Connecting Worlds
Through cutting-edge 3-D printing technology, we create sustainable educational opportunities.
Our Mission
260+ million children worldwide lack access to education.
We're changing that with 3D-printed schools that are built faster, cost less, and empower communities around the world.
Our name reflects our mission:
🛖 “Huts” represent the 3D-printed schools we build.
💡 “Thinking” symbolizes the education and opportunity they unlock.
🪶 Our kingfisher logo stands for peace and prosperity which are values we aim to bring to every community we serve.
Our Vision
To create a world where every child has access to quality education—built on innovation, dignity, and our shared future.
