Modular prefabricated houses are being hailed the ‘homes of the future’, and a possible solution to resolving the housing crisis that is now plaguing many local Councils in Australia.

Prefabricated homes aren’t a new invention. In fact, they’ve been around since the 17th century. Simple timber cottages were built in England then shipped out to new colonies, such as the United States in the 1600s and Australia in the 1800s, where they were assembled ready for habitation. However, the pre-fab home industry has come a long way since then, and the pre-fabricated homes now available are often designed by architects, using the latest, high-quality, eco-friendly tools and materials, creating convenient and affordable spaces for the modern-day homeowner.
