Building prefabricated architecture was first explored with vigor after World War II, when architects found themselves in the unique position of needing to create lots of housing quickly for returning veterans and their families. Prefabricated architecture is constructed off-site, often in modules that are shipped to their destination and then assembled. Not only does the process save time, it reduces the number of human errors that occur on the job site and the amount of material needed and wasted, cutting both construction and environmental costs.
You can find more information on our web, so please take a look.
For these reasons, architects across the world have been exploring its potential in projects of all typologies. Prefabricated architecture has been touted as a potential solution to the global affordable housing crisis, a playbook to create fast and inexpensive temporary emergency shelters, and a path to reducing the building industrys harmful climate effects. However, despite modular architectures premade parts, a design doesnt have to be made en masse, nor does it exclude beauty, detail, and innovation. These 11 examples prove that prefabricated architecture, historic or contemporary, can be even more eye-catching than traditional construction.
Did you know that pre-fab construction dates back as far as the pilgrims, who shipped a disassembled house from England to Cape Ann, Mass., so that the new settlers would have a well-constructed place to stay? Thanksgiving might have taken place in a pre-fab house that was assembled onsite. Today, the unhappy hipsters in Dwell magazine are roasting their tofurkies and drinking craft beer in something a bit more technologically advanced, but they might be closer to their predecessors in New England then they think.
For an update on what is happening in pre-fab construction these days, here are some of our favorite examples from the Architizer database.
