VRT Resimercial Design Theory
About
As proof of concept, that the all builtins apartment works better for tenant and landlord alike, rehab ten apartments with builtins to see how how tenants
respond. See how much rent premium is produced. See how much excess revenue is generated by AirBnB unit. See if a waiting list for apartments becomes necessary. For the test case cabinetry construction might be by way of established technology like pocket holes and alignment dowels. As the concept proves switch to new technology such as Lockdowel or O V V O fasteners. Established pocket hole technology means less initial investment at the cost of more labor intensive assembly. Lockdowel or O V V O fabrication's all CNC production means fast and easy installation at the cost of initial CNC set up.
Demonstrations
The O V V O system might just be the easiest and fastest of the new joinery systems developed over the past few years. Plus their fasteners can even be used to secure counter tops to base cabinets.

The LockDowel cabinet system assembles with ease and speed comparable to that of O V V O. For certain applications it can use all metal connection pieces resulting in superior shear and pull out strength.

Striplox has developed several connection systems which work not only with sheet goods but dimensional lumber as well. These systems provide very strong connections that are quickly assembled and easily disassembled.
ShoptBot has a line of CNC routing tools suitable for prototype testing and small scale production runs.
CNC Factory is a state of the art system designed around the LockDowel high tech panel fastening system.
