SOCIAL FLEXIBLE CONFIGURABLE HOUSING USING A MODULAR PREFAB FACTORY

Fandi and Lucas

Versatile housing

The 2.3m2.3m2.3m grid system approach provides a sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective solution to the housing crisis, and our modular system ensures flexibility in different scales to meet both urban planning expectation and individual preferences.

META-BIN

Our design concept is based on the Japanese metabolism system, with a modular design, prefabricated in the factory and assembled to meet the needs of the site. The transportation of prefabricated components from the factory and the citizen participation in the assembly process, the replacement of damaged single components, all reduce the waste of resources.

Plug n’ Play

In the Plug n’ Play building, human working spaces are provided in pods that can move throughout the volume of the building and attach to any of the needed stationary/immovable facilities as needed. The building is purely a structural grid, affording 3d circulation of pods and stationary supporting spaces.

Adaptive Cell

The leading inspiration in the design process, were issues related to the field of biomimicry. Both the form, function and mechanisms allowing for mobility and adaptation found their inspiration in this field, allowing us to design a futuristic and ecological capsule.

Transformabilit ------ Flexible Sustainble Shelter

Combining the relevant research on the characteristics of the grain bins and the local context, we decided to transform the original monotonous cylindrical grain bins into an agricultural accommodation center with multiple functions. It is a SUSTAINABLE SHELTER that can be TRANSFOR, moved, pushed and pulled according to climate change, which just looks like.

Spline

Spline is a comprehensive, compact and cost-effective solution to temporary modular housing. It is an attempt at activating the unused alleyway and providing an affordable accommodation in the dense landscape of New York.

The Spiraling Circuit

We imagined a new platform; A continuous platform that can escape the vertical and horizontal surveillance network of Taylorism while at the same time integrating each space like a single space. As a result, the main concept of the building we propose is a continuous circuit. The continual flow on the spiraling-line induces active interactions with the user.

Flexible Square

During our lives we experience many changes, so it is often necessary that the spaces we use also change. The house is one of those spaces that we usually buy / build once in a lifetime and use it forever, but due to the fact that the family changes over the years, modular houses which are flexible depending on our requirements are very necessary nowadays.

Armadicar

To overcome the unpredictable disasters occurring on this planet, Armadicar – a mobile habitat inspired by Armadillo – provides an adaptive dwelling in a minimum space. With costumizable interior elements, openings and boundaries, Armadicar accommodates four-member family activities during days and nights, on land and water surface in sustainable way.

Kan and Jingyun

BICYCART

BICYCART is a cart designed for China's post covid-19 era which constitutes a new design by deconstructing and reorganizing the existing waste materials. The modular design ensures the high customization, high mobility and high flexibility of the cart. The main material of the cart is reconstructed from the widely abandoned sharing bike-Mobike in China

Time Bubble——The home of the future

In decades to come,there will be no land used for habitation in the city.And people will move their home to the countryside.The home of the future will be just like a bubble that can change (expand,shrink,fuse,crack) according to the usage state of the home.
