MOD
By admin • Aug 4th, 2008 • Category: ALL PROJECTS, EXPERIMENTAL, HOUSINGThe modular housing system ( MOD ) is a response to the financial, social and environmental impacts of current housing trends. MOD aims to provide an achievable alternative to the way we live, the way we build, and the way we develop communities.
MOD is more than a house, its a building and living system. MOD allows housing to grow and shrink accordingly, allows for denser living, is flexible, customisable, and cheap. MOD can squeeze into existing voids in the city, it can float on the ocean, and be buried underground… it is by no means “the answer” but has been designed to question and speculate onfuture possibilities….
The key area’s MOD addresses are:
- the growing size, cost, and relative inflexibility of contemporary houses
- utilising simple, cheaper building technologies and renewable resources to deliver faster, better outcomes
- higher density / smaller footprint living and development
