5. Adex eco-friendly house
ADEX, made from an eco-friendly interlocking system of prefabricated pieces, is another self-sufficient house that works out perfectly on an off-grid living. ADEX is easy to install anywhere as it has the ability to adopt its different site to eventually meet the changing needs of its surroundings, being capable of collecting renewable resources. The triangular pre-fab pieces are also easily disassembled by the time the owners are willing and ready to move to other places. What makes this prefabricated housing a sustainable one is its photovoltaic panels, solar heaters, rainwater storage, and greywater recycling. Aside from that, the system itself is also composed of recycled waste materials. It was designed by Alberto Lara and Paula Noguron.
4. Soe Ker Tie Hias (Butterfly House)
TYIN Tegnestue is a non-profit group of student architects which recently designed these unusual wood prefab houses in Noh Bo, Tak, Thailand. The house, called Soe Ker Tie Hias (the Butterfly Houses), is named for its innovative flip-up roof design that enables effective natural ventilation while collecting rainwater for re-use. These eco-friendly prefab homes are clad in locally harvested bamboo, and the material is woven using a traditional method on the front and rear facades that appears commonly in other homes and crafts done in the area.
3. Dome House
Dubbed the “habitat for the 21st century,” the Dome House, made by Japan’s Dome House Co., is an igloo-shaped structure built from snap-together wall sections made of 100% expanded polystyrene foam (styrofoam). The houses, which have many configurations and sizes to select from, are made with a material that is easy to assemble, will not rot or attract insects, and acts as its own insulation. The flame-retardant walls can burn, but do not emit toxic fumes if they do.
2. ConHouse
Minimum spaces are no excuse for bad taste. A good example is this sophisticated living small house design from Trebnje, Slovenia, called the ConHouse, where a two-story prefab mini home is assembled out of two perpendicularly positioned containers, one atop the other.
1. Youmeheshe’s organic prefab house
Youmeheshe architects presented at the London Pecha Kucha event their small but tall ‘organic house’ — a wood pre-fab prototype that was Youmeheshe’s answer to a British-government challenge last year for architects to design an affordable house for under £60,000. This bio-fueled, wood-clad house that “touches the ground lightly” has a design that uses a kit of parts – for example a level could be a whole floor or a loft depending on the size of the household – to assemble a house floor-by-floor. The highest models were a 4 room, 4 story house.
