Prefabricated homes by WIRED & LivingHomes

Wired magazine and LivingHomes partnered to create the first ever WIRED prefabricated home, a showcase of the best in sustainability, technology and design. This 4,057-sq.-ft. $4 million prefab home is in the exclusive Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles.

LivingHomes are a pioneer in green, prefabricated development. Their prefab homes use sustainable, healthier building materials, as well as energy-efficient environmental systems and products, thus contributing to cleaner air, water, and soil.

Consistent with its focus on sustainable design, this Wired prefabricated home features a forced hot air radiant heating and cooling system; recycled glass bathroom countertops; Heath ceramic tile; low-maintenance high-design ecological kitchen cabinetry; an environmentally friendly washer/dryer system that uses less water and energy; windows and doors constructed with recycled glass and aluminum; reclaimed redwood milled from old military barracks; FSC-certified exterior siding; tankless water heaters; and LED lights that consume less energy than conventional light bulbs.

Sport prefab home from Swedish group

Before talking about sport prefab home, let we know about what is prefab home. Prefabricated homes, often referred to as prefab homes, are dwellings manufactured off-site in advance, usually in standard sections that can be easily shipped and assembled. Some current prefab home designs include architectural details inspired by postmodernism or futurist architecture.

Prefab homes have not been particularly marketable; possible reasons for this include:

* Homes are not currently produced cost-effectively enough for current demand.
* Homes are not considered a realistic housing solution by the average consumer.
* The consumer is either not familiar with the concept, or does not desire it.
* Social stigma that exists because of low quality mass produced designs used in the past.
* Difficulties obtaining finance due to stricter guidelines being used by lenders to assess prefab home loans.

This wooden prefab structure is called Sport and it’s a modern version of the classic sports cabin, offering a spacious open-plan interior and panoramic windows.

This stylish prefab home looks like a modern Scandinavian bungalow; it features two models: Leisure and Residence, with sizes spanning from 20 to 160 sq meter.
