Here we drift a little off topic and present a range of prefab or kit structures that fall outside of the "modernist dwelling" focus of fabprefab.
Why are we including these projects? Certainly our goal is not to convince people to swap from buying a Miesian pavilion to buying a Yurt.

However these projects employ prefabrication methodologies to varying degrees and many have been commercially available for decades. Vendors have developed successful business models by selling kit/DIY/prefab dwellings to groups who have interests outside of the mainstream. Maybe some useful lessons can be learned from their experiences. The list is not intended to be exhaustive in scale - merely representational of the scope of products available. Some structures resemble "traditional" domestic architecture while others are somewhat more radical in form (and yes we probably have too many Yurt listings...).

Icosa Village Pods

After much deliberating we have decided that The Pod should not be featured in the fablist because it is not designed to be a permanent structure.
Icosa Village Pods do not face some of the building code constraints that other permanent structures do. We're not questioning their Modernist credentials.
We feel that The Icosa Village Pods are unique enough to warrant their own space here on the otherfab page.
The web site offers extensive product information.

Little House
This project was another challenge for us to place at fabprefab. After deliberating, we have chosen otherfab as the home because
a) we feel it might be too small to be called a dwelling b) we're just not sure about that front door.
