Last week a prefab modular home caught my eye, so I thought I'd search for a few companies in Australia who make them. These could be a great alternative to the regular home, especially if you want to make a statement.

Cliff House Ivanhoe Extension Tamarama Project Franklinford Lane Cove Tintaldra About Modscape Materials and Engineering Systems Manufacturers Cliff House - Modular Prefab Home Concept Floor plans and sections Area 285 m² (3000 ft²) Bedrooms 3 Bathrooms 2 Project Year 2014 Imagine waking up every day with a 180° ocean view without leaving the comfort of your living room. Cliff House owners (not yet built) have hired the Australian Modscape office to design their dream home - hovering over the sea, tethered to a cliff edge. Cliff House redefines the meaning of "living dangerously" with its wide floor-to-ceiling openings and delicate metal frame. The four-story modular prefab home develops below a two-car garage on top of a cliff, virtually invisible from afar. The car is parked at the top of the residence, accessible via a discreet staircase leading to the lower level. Once inside, residents face panoramic ocean views from every room. Spaces are stacked and privacy increases as we descend the stairs; thus, the kitchen is located above the living room, which is above the bedrooms, which have a private terrace on the lower level. The modestly sized modular prefab home features a full kitchen, dining room, three bedrooms, two bathrooms and an open-roof spa. The Modscape office is named after modular design, a brand of the team whose designs are based on sustainability and speed of construction. The office was challenged to rethink the notion of modular design in Cliff House design due to its remote location on the Australian coast. The modular prefab home will be built from several stacked modular units set into the cliff surface through steel piles. In response to extreme conditions, the cliff-facing wall tapers as it descends, creating a sloping glass curtain inside the entire house. The house resembles a parasite attached to a ship's hull due to its deployment below the cliff boundary. Modscape architects described the house as a "natural extension of the escarpment, rather than an addition to the landscape, creating an absolute connection to the ocean." Floor plans and sections Ivanhoe - Modular Prefab Extension, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Floor plans and sections Location Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Project Ivanhoe Project Year 2017 Photography John Madden Manufacturers Perini Tiles, Tongue n Groove, Lockwood, Interia, Signorino In search of more space to house the growing family, the clients have opted for a modular prefab extension project rather than moving home. The modular prefab extension is an open space full of natural light, perfectly complementing the original design. A new double height access hall has been created in the middle of the house, clearly demarcating the boundary between the existing architecture and the new project. As soon as we enter this space, we are drawn to look up, where the circular skylight allows full natural illumination of the central space of the house. In order to adapt to the inclined terrain, the modular prefab extension project had a small soil moving to create different levels between the original floor plan (which is now the children's space), the lobby and the new living area. This subtly marks the different areas of the house, while the same oak flooring has been used throughout the façade to create a sense of continuity between its different parts. Next to the emptiness of the foyer is the heart of the house - the kitchen space. From the outset, the clients made sure that the organization of the house's spaces was around the kitchen, carefully choosing the layout and finishes. Along with a large pantry, the kitchen is large enough to house the whole family while cooking, making it a place for meeting and socializing. This space is also favored by the large floor-to-ceiling windows framing views of the backyard and the surrounding large trees. Full opening sliding doors provide an even better transition between interior and exterior space - resulting in a relaxed and well-lit space. Certified woods of different shades complement each other creating a perfect harmony in the facade of the building. The transition between the hollow panel of the curved brise and the solid timbered façade further enhances the volume of this architecture. This curved element is very practical - it offers sun protection as well as privacy, ensuring protection from the neighboring yard. For the couple, the top floor suite is a tranquil haven that floats lightly over the green garden area. The modular prefab extension project includes active and passive systems to ensure that the home functions economically and efficiently. Thermal gain control; cross ventilation; high levels of natural light; double glasses; high performance insulation; rainwater storage; efficient lighting systems; potable water saving systems; and reverse cycle heating and cooling. While the team of architects were busy building the modular prefab extension project within the factory, customers were still living in the house with no problem. They had to leave just four weeks before the installation began, while the team coordinated the demolition work and site preparation. The modules were installed in record time in just one day. And three weeks later, the team delivered the complete work so that customers could come in and bring this project to life. Floor plans and sections Tamarama - Modular Prefab Home, NSW, Australia Floor plans and sections Design Fox Johnston, Modscape Location Tamarama, Australia Area 337 m² (3600 ft²) Project Year 2018 Photography John Madden Manufacturers American Oak James Hardie Company Artedomus Speed ​​Heat Signorino Kaldewei Vaio Escea DuPont Astra Walker Fisher & Paykel Blackened Cambia Ash Abey Siemens Tongue n Groove Lockwood Whisper Sydney-based clients approached Modscape after working with local architects, Fox Johnston, who developed a project tailored for the growing family. The home should fit their lifestyle through better connections between indoor and outdoor spaces, improved use of natural light, heating and passive cooling. Modscape staff refined the project and respected the architect's initial intent. The resulting modular prefab home design perfectly complements existing elements by connecting the front and back garden through the house, optimizing the relationship between interior and exterior. Using the original housing configuration, the new residence works very similarly and incorporates the existing sandstone base in the landscaping, anchoring the building on site. Downstairs spaces provide extensive alternative uses for the whole family. Visual integration is maintained between the kitchen, living room, dining room, exterior and office, creating an inclusive living environment with easy access to the beach, no pool required. In contrast, the yard works as an extension of the interior spaces thanks to the large glazed areas. An efficient top floor design comfortably accommodates five bedrooms and two bathrooms. Designed to capture sunlight in winter and prevent it from warming in summer, the modular prefab home incorporates movable wooden umbrellas that not only help soften the shape by adding layers and textures to the façade, but also help to prevent solar heat gain. Windows and skylights are used throughout the modular prefab home, maximizing light and producing natural cross ventilation that ensures a comfortable and bright home. Internally, a palette of light materials, mostly wood, contrasts with the dark exterior. As you enter the front door you are greeted by a generous double-height hall with a staircase reflecting the wooden slats that are used externally on umbrellas. In the living room, wood extends from wall to ceiling to help subtly define the space and complement the oak floor. Choosing quality materials that stand up to the intensive use of children rather than "colorful" finishes ensures that the result is a lasting and humble modular prefab home design, yet at the same time elegant and timeless. Floor plans and sections Tamarama - Modular Prefab Home, NSW, Australia Franklinford - Prefab Modular Off-the-Grid Sustainable House Floor plans and sections Located at Franklinford in Victoria’s Central Highlands, the four-bedroom modular home is shared between two families, providing a gathering place for the extended family and a place to relax and relish the joys of rural life. Taking its cues from agricultural buildings in the surrounding farmland, this sustainable house is predominantly clad in Colorbond with accents of Vitrabond. Yet upon approach it’s the radially sawn timber board & batten clad form that commands attention. This beautifully textured façade conceals the calm rural retreat, with the long form providing a sense of enclosure and privacy. Internally, a light material palette makes for a crisp and spacious prefabricated home. Rooms are washed in white, a marble-effect Caesarstone benchtop is selected, and white laminate joinery is used throughout. These elements create a beautiful contrast against the dark oak timber floors. The large living wing, separated from the private bedroom wing, is the focal point of the house. Living and entertaining spills outdoors thanks to expansive floor-to-ceiling glazing opening up to a north-facing, sun-drenched deck. Views of the surrounding paddocks and creek are captured the moment you walk in the front door. The window itself becomes an ideal space to put your feet up and relax. Being a rural property, a mudroom laundry with external access was a must –a seat was even included in the joinery brief so that you can take off your dirty boots before heading indoors. This prefab house is completely off-grid with all services systems designed to not compromise on the clients’ lifestyle. A nearby shed hosts the solar panel and storage system and a large 80,000L water tank is in use. Like all Modscape modular homes, Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) have been incorporated to create a highly-insulated shell. The house has been oriented to capture the sunlight in winter, particularly in the large living area where the families spend the majority of their time. Carefully considered eaves together with thermally broken, low-e double-glazed windows which minimises solar heat gain in summer.

The resulting modular home maximises space in a humble and understated layout, taking cues from the original dwelling. The new modular home adheres to a similar footprint, incorporating existing elements including the sandstone footings. Simple in form, the large 300 sqm modular home is made up of only 4 housing modules. The bulk of the form is softened by timber battened screens and awnings, which provide privacy and sun protection and help add layers and texture to the façade. The organisation of space is dictated not only by the efficiency of our modular system, but the functionality of the internal spaces and the client’s desire to have a clear separation between living and rest areas. An open plan kitchen, living and dining effortlessly flows out onto a rear deck through a bank of floor-to-ceiling glass. The kitchen is visually and physically connected to the outdoor dining area thanks to a convenient buffet window – perfect for entertaining and long summer nights dining by the pool. Highlight windows maximise light and aid natural cross ventilation, ensuring the home is as comfortable as it is bright. This prefab house project is a demonstration of strong communication and coordination between our interstate clients and Modscape’s Melbourne team. And the result is a beautiful and functional family modular home to be enjoyed for many years to come.

As a boutique project, the 1 bedroom prefab home design brief required a cabin that was completely off grid and easily maintained during long periods of vacancy throughout the year. A cladding system was subsequently developed to create a salvaged, shed-like exterior, consisting of a base layer of new zincalume and a top layer of recycled zincalume which was applied for effect. When viewed from the road, the cabin recedes into the landscape by looking like any number of sheds in the area and appears as a small silhouette against the main range of the snowy mountains on the horizon. As a stark contrast, the interior is crisp white with clean lines and contemporary fittings and fixtures, although the environment continues to be referenced in punctuations of timber flooring, decking, and a wood fire heater that invites the outdoors in. Minimalistic in layout, the cabin provides all the amenities needed for living including a master bedroom, bathroom and modest open plan kitchen/living/dining area, while solar panels, a septic tank and a rainwater tank ensures year-round services and minimal environmental impact.

We love its character, its patina and the elegance it bestows upon each and every project. It is this passion, along with feedback from the market, which inspired us to create a completely new type of engineered timber.

This gives our customers one of the strongest boards on the market – unrivalled in terms of size, strength, flexibility of use, stability and quality. However, it isn’t just our boards’ superior quality that has caught our clients’ attention, it’s our aesthetic appeal too. Working with some of Australia’s leading architects and designers, we have created an inspired palette of colours and finishes, all treated with natural oil to allow for easy maintenance. Moreover, since coming to market with this product, we have been commissioned by various practitioners up and down the country to collaborate on a diverse range of projects – both residential and commercial.

In addition to sustainable materials and construction practices, the design of the home also focuses on energy efficiency: windows and doors are located opposite each other to harness the ocean breeze and reduce the need for air conditioning. In conversation with the beautiful natural surroundings, this custom home has multiple outdoor patios and decks, as well as an expansive first floor with a chef’s kitchen, living, dining and family rooms—all open and perfect for entertaining. A downstairs guest suite can double as an office space. A floating staircase leads to four bedrooms, each with its own bath and outdoor space. The master suite is especially large, with a walk-in closet and a private deck with ocean views. The screening room with surround sound and blackout capability offers even more options for entertaining. Designing with Plant’s processes in mind and efficiently prefabricating the home to Kappe’s exact specifications allowed the client to truly make the most of this unique lot. 5 Bedroom Prefab Modular Home, Santa Monica, California LEED Platinum Modular Prefab Multifamily Home, Los Altos, California Installation Video Bedrooms 3 Bathrooms 3 Floor Area 1685 sq. ft.

First LEED Platinum Home in USA - Installed in 8 Hours Prefab Modular House in Santa Monica, California Beautiful 4 Bedroom Modular Home, California Bedrooms 4 Bathrooms 4 Floor Area 4700 sq. ft. Architect/Designer Ray Kappe Location Santa Monica, CA This custom 4 bedroom modular home in California was designed by Plant Design Partner Ray Kappe for a beautiful lot in Santa Monica. It was prefabricated as eleven modules and assembled onsite in just over two days, saving the neighborhood from months of disruption. Like all LivingHomes, this home features an extremely comprehensive environmental program. The 4 bedroom modular home is a 4,700 sq. ft., organic-themed contemporary with a blocky, modern aesthetic and walls trimmed in monolithic sheets of exposed wood and glass. The house was sold to USC in 2020 for $8.6 million by David G. Brown. He had picked up the property in 2014 for $6.75 million, and tax records indicate the current residence was built in 2012. Designed by noted architect Ray Kappe, the modernist structure offers an open-concept floorplan and open dining, living and media rooms. A state-of-the-art kitchen has designer Miele appliances, Caesarstone countertops and an open seating area. Upstairs, the master bedroom opens to a slim balcony with views to the Pacific Ocean. The mostly hardscaped, low maintenance backyard includes a dark-bottomed plunge pool with raised spa. The 4 bedroom modular home is located on what has frequently been considered one of the most prestigious residential streets in Santa Monica, where some of Folt’s nearest new neighbors include actor Jonah Hill, “The Simpsons” creator Matt Groening and Mona Simpson, sister of the late Steve Jobs. Beautiful 4 Bedroom Modular Home, California About Living Homes Our mission is to create homes and communities that inspire people, foster family and community interaction, and make modern life easier, healthier and more comfortable - all in ways that complement and enhance the municipalities and environments in which we work. We design homes created by world-class architects, which feature warm, modern design, functional amenities, and great price value. Our homes include natural, non-toxic and sustainably-derived materials. The result of all this: healthier, happier homes that have a dramatically smaller ecological footprint than most new homes. The first Livinghome, designed by Ray Kappe, FAIA was installed in eight hours and was the first home ever certified LEED® Platinum by the United States Green Building Council. Since then, we have built more LEED Platinum homes than almost any other design firm. We're proud of this. Finding builders that met our standards for sustainability, quality, and cost was always a challenge, so in 2016 we founded a solution: Plant Prefab, the nation's first prefabricated design and manufacturing company dedicated to sustainable construction, materials, processes, and operations. LivingHomes is now the in-house design studio of Plant Prefab, enabling us to create homes of unsurpassed quality in half the time of traditional construction, with lower construction costs and less waste. LivingHomes are available in standard or customized configurations to builders, developers and individuals. In 2019 we built upon our commitment to sustainability by pledging to becoming fully carbon neutral. The "Plant Promise" is an ambitious goal to achieve net zero emissions across all company processes and operations.

We manufacture custom single and multifamily homes that are high-quality, sustainable, healthy, and durable. We empower individuals, architects, and small developers who want to build their own projects — and who want an efficient and reliable solution. And peace of mind during the process. We work with your architects on your custom designs or you can work with our Design Partners or select Standard Homes they have created for us. We are the nation's first prefabricated design and manufacturing company dedicated to sustainable construction, materials, processes, and operations. We believe that homes can — and should — be built in ways that minimize their negative impact on energy, water, and resources, as well as the health of the people who live in them and build them. We know that factory construction can be faster, more cost-effective, and more reliable than on-site construction. And we know it saves neighborhoods from months of noise pollution, traffic and disruption. Plant was spun out of LivingHomes, a sustainable design development company responsible for dozens of award-winning prefabricated homes, including the nation's first LEED Platinum-certified home. LivingHomes is now Plant's in-house design studio, enabling us to create homes of unsurpassed quality in half the time of traditional construction, with lower construction costs and less waste. Leveraging LivingHomes's experience utilizing ten different factories before Plant was founded, we've learned a lot about what works and what doesn't. Plant Prefab reflects many of these lessons and best practices. Major funding for Plant was provided by Amazon and Obvious Ventures, a venture fund that focuses on #worldpositive investments. Our first factory is a 62,000-sf facility in Rialto, California. In 2019 we built upon our commitment to sustainability by pledging to becoming fully carbon neutral. The "Plant Promise" is an ambitious goal to achieve net zero emissions across all company processes and operations.

In 1972, he resigned his position as Founding Chair of the Department of Architecture at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona and along with a group of faculty, students and his wife, Shelly Kappe, started what eventually came to be known as the Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc). In 2003, Kappe began working with LivingHomes to design modular homes. Kappe remained actively involved in architectural theory and practice in his later years, particularly in the areas of sustainability and the prefabrication of residences.
