Mike Jacob — Founder / Director.

Mike graduated in philosophy but found his true vocation after taking the pioneering MSc in Sustainable Architecture at the Centre for Alternative Technologies (CAT). This set him on a quest to figure out the best way to deliver exceptional buildings through his own business, Trunk.  Along the way Mike’s projects have picked up numerous awards. He’s a Chartered Construction Manager, Certified Passivhaus Tradesperson, a past Constructing Excellence Achiever of the Year and one of Building Magazines 50 Rising Stars of Sustainability. He’s brought that experience to Kiss House, along with an unshakable belief that there’s a better way to build a home where quality and comfort are everything.

Mike leads everything product-related at Kiss House and Kiss Custom. He’s responsible for interrogating every aspect of the design and performance, and for leading product innovation and research and development. He’s also the originator of our innovative foundation system and wood fibre insulation.
