What's New in Modern Prefab

on 05.26.09

We used to show a lot of modern prefab, but is has fallen off the radar as of late, as we become more concerned about how we will get to where we build as well as the way we build. It used to be enough that something was built in the factory with greater precision and less waste; it isn't any more. We have tended to the really deep green, or to the very small designs that can fit in urban spaces.
So we provide herein some delightful eye candy, a few very interesting designs that we have missed, and a lovely rooftop intervention. Thanks to our source, Materialicious.
