Considering the many examples of countryside-like places filled with modular buildings that I’ve seen so far, it seems that flexible quickbuild architecture is slowly becoming more widely accepted. The funny thing is, 90 percent of those ingenious creatures are simply bargains. For example, have a look at the project ‘A Cottage in a Day’ I found a nice article about on a blog called ‘A Continuous Lean’.
A Cottage in a Day is a company that developed great selfbuild cottage homes in collaboration with architect Michael Fitzhugh. “According to the company, once all the components arrive, setup can be done in a few hours”, the author of the article writes. The energy-efficient homes are designed and built with under-floor storage, heating and air conditioning, bamboo flooring and natural wood walls. The builders also offer a set of optional features, like a fireplace, a full loft with movable ship’s ladder and an outdoor shower. Prices start from $ 52,000. Sounds nice, huh?
