CEO And Founder Of Revolution Precrafted Robbie Antonio Has Established A Unique Niche – Global, Designer, Prefab Housing.
The expression ‘celebrity property developer’ might not be one that’s entered the public’s consciousness, but if it’s applicable to anyone, it is to Robbie Antonio, CEO and Founder of Revolution Precrafted.
The 41-year-old developer, entrepreneur and connoisseur of art is the visionary behind a revolutionary concept – prefab buildings that are not just affordable, but also luxurious and stylish. Founded in December 2015, Revolution represents a partnership between prefab architecture and more than 80 world-class designers and firms such as Jean Nouvel, Kravitz Design and the Zaha Hadid architectural firm.
Though he’s still relatively young, Robbie has forayed into property development before launching Revolution. He founded Antonio Development in New York and has been responsible for the development of millions of square metres of luxury real estate across the Philippines and the US.
But these sorts of projects weren’t able to maintain Robbie’s interest indefinitely. With years of luxury architecture experience behind him, he came up with the unique concept of designer prefab. “I thought, ‘This is great, but I’m impacting one sort of developer in only one country,’” Robbie explains. “I decided I wanted to be truly global, and have an asset-light business that could be nimble and disruptive. I amalgamated my contacts and created a business to reach the world. I still wanted luxury, but I wanted it to be affordable.”
