Modular Prefabricated Homes: Innovative In Rural Housing After The Earthquake

Ecuador is located in the northwest of South America, in the Pacific Rim seismic belt, so earthquakes and volcanic disasters are frequent. Post-reconstruction requires a faster, more cost-effective and adaptable solution.

The special construction method of prefabricated houses greatly shortens the construction time and reduces costs, achieving low budget and high cost-effectiveness. Therefore, modular prefab houses are one of the best solutions available to architects.

AL BORDE and El Sindicato Arquitectura demonstrated the great potential of modular prefabricated homes in the project of post-earthquake prototype rural housing in Ecuador.

This low-cost prefabricated home is developed and built according to the topography of rural areas in Ecuador. Its earthquake-resistant structure can be prefabricated using plywood without the need for specialized machinery and labor. All prefabricated fits are prefabricated in the factory and transported to the installation site for installation.

This modular prefabricated home refers to the model of an unfolding box, so residents can build their own extensions later according to their own ideas.

This modular house with 3 bedrooms and can accommodate a large family. Extensions can be set up with bathrooms, cellars, kitchens and balconies.

Modular prefabricated houses have endless possibilities. Whether you want to own a luxurious prefabricated steel villa or an affordable small prefabricated house, it can meet your wishes. Moneybox hopes to help you build your dream home.
