The affordable housing shortage has necessitated the need for a rapid increase in the existing housing stock in a resource efficient manner. Yet, massive gaps exist between the design, fabrication, and ownership of housing units because of which new innovations take time to reach the market.
The Rapid Modular Housing Prototype Lab is a symbiotic system that shortens the feedback loop between the various stages of design, fabrication, and performance analysis by bringing together various stakeholders to develop and test innovations in high rise modular construction on site. A new ecosystem of extraction, production, and consumption results in a rapidly responsive architecture that forms a new relationship between the town and the forest.
