RESOLUTION : 4 A R C H I T E C T U R E

More prefabricated architecture found of '4 architecture'.
"Some Notes on the Idea of (The) Modern Modular:
As labor costs continue to rise in America, it is becoming increasingly difficult to afford the high cost of building a quality custom home. By leveraging existing construction methodologies of prefabrication, we are designing custom modern homes based on a system of ‘Modules of Use.’ These Modules have been derived from our body of predominantly urban residential work, which has been an attempt not only to accommodate, but also to articulate ‘Elements of Utility’ that are essential to sustain domestic life. Our current explorations have resulted in a series of freestanding domestic typologies that attempt to embody this essence of utility.
Each design incorporates off-the-shelf materials, techniques, and spatial organizational strategies that we have employed in our previous residential work as a small architectural practice in New York City.
We believe that by combining these strategies of leveraging both prefabricated construction and our experience in efficient urban domestic planning strategies, we propose to offer an option of Mass Customization to the fabric of the American domestic sub-urban landscape, modern modular custom prefabricated homes by Resolution: 4 Architecture." to find out more...
