Prefab House in NZ Assembled in Only 4 Days
MAKE architects assembled a prefabricated farmland house on-site in Karangahake, New Zealand, in only four days. In developing the project, the architects avoided wasteful and arduous construction processes, and focused on cost-saving, sustainable solutions. The simple, quite dwelling employs carefully selected materials and finishes, weathertight linings and smart ventilation systems. Perched on a hilltop surrounded by the karangahake forests and the kaimai ranges, the residence by MAKE architects signifies ‘a return to our collective necessities of shelter, gathering and freedom’. the farmland home is designed to highlight the importance of the surrounding environment and allow residents to enjoy quiet family moments. on the outside, an exterior terrace offers views of the natural landscape, while the ‘outdoor room’, a protected in-between space, connects the eastern and western sides.
