The Future for Modular Technology

The future for building new homes in general is changing rapidly. New green building techniques are appearing all the time. Creative architecture is becoming more popular in all types of building; commercial as well as residential. However, if you had asked me the future of modular building technology, I wouldn’t have come up with some of the ideas found at the MoMA’s exhibit in Philadelphia. The exhibit includes the “Cellophane House” which is a glass house with solar and photovoltaic panels, the “System 3″ which features a wall less bathroom and the “Micro Compact Home” which is described as an Airstream trailer on stilts. I’m pretty sure I’m ready for new energy ideas, but the wall less bathroom hopefully won’t come into vogue until I’ve departed this earth! To read more about these exciting new ideas for modular building technology read this article in the Philadelphia Weekly or go to the MoMA blog.
