ModHaus
Project type
Prefab Modular House
Date
October 2020
Location
Marfa, Texas
ModHaus balances 21st-century building
technologies, thoughtful design and environmental
conscientiousness to create a prefabricated
house that is an affordable and practical high
end alternative to custom designed homes.
The next generation of living — ModHaus design to flourish on almost any building site, in any climate.
The building envelope and structural systems include a
variety of options to customize the environmental
performance of the house to the site of your
choosing. Moreover, it has a far lower environmental
impact than a standard custom-designed house.
Each space in ModHaus has been carefully
considered to maximize natural light and air, which
in turn reduces energy usage and costs. Many
materials chosen follow criteria for LEED certification, guaranteeing sustainability.
Construction waste is drastically reduced by
prefabricating ModHaus components before
they arrive on site. Prefabrication saves precious
natural resources, and also lowers assembly costs
while increasing precision.
ModHaus offers more than simple luxury and
livability: it is a house you can feel good about
living in.
