There’s so many variations in accommodation to choose from when you’re planning a holiday - hotels, apartments, caravans, cottages, even camping, but I bet you haven’t considered the concept of a modular getaway.

In developing countries the demand for low cost, yet sustainable living is unsurprisingly a huge priority - and even more so due to the extent and frequency of catastrophic events putting pressure on housing requirements.

One thing about modular buildings that saves time, energy and money is that they are constructed and assembled off-site in a factory.

Often described as ‘Tardis like’ by those who live in them, containers are an innovative accommodation solution for temporary, or even more permanent housing needs.

In this blog we take a look at some ambitious design feats, both traditional and modern, that really demonstrate how far Pre-Fabs have come since their large-scale implementation in the 1940s.

Modular building is a versatile and dynamic method of construction that has been gaining in popularity in recent years. Despite this, there is still some confusion over the processes involved. This may sometimes lead people to hesitate before choosing modular as a construction method for their project.

Modular builds have a surprisingly rich history and their origins go further back than you might think. We take a look at how their diverse use across continents has developed over the years.

Here we take a look at the extensive innovation within the modular industry and explore Pre-Fabs that have become the first of their kind.
