A Wooden House That Is Modern, Ecological And Economic - The Design blog





A Wooden House That Is Modern, Ecological And Economic - The Design blog: "Inspired by Pierre Koenig’s Case Study House, this environmentally-friendly, modular building by Module-Home has been designed by combining different modules. The modules can be mounted on stilts, sills, slabs or anything of your choice. Since its inception, they have integrated bioclimatic strict standards. These modules are all innovations to minimize its impact on the planet. The house has been designed with a nice ceiling height, a protected terrace and large sliding windows to enhance the perception of space and lightness. The duration of the project is so short, owing to the fact that the modules are assembled in the day to a house up to 100m ² (with 3 modules). Optional features include solar panels, rainwater harvesting and heating with renewable energy to ensure minimum impact on the environment. The budget varies according to the interior layout, finishes, type of heating and the structure of the field. The average cost per square meter starts at €600/m² for a “ready for decorating” finish, while the cost can go up to €900/m² for a “ready to live” finish. Construction techniques are the same as used for traditional wooden houses, which guarantees sustainability and low energy consumption."
