We have selected the top 5 Modern Modular Homes to choose from in Australia. Each one of these modular-built houses offers not only a modern-contemporary look but it is design with a conscious approach to today’s environmental needs.
All these houses have some “modern” features in common:
- Simple shapes and designs.
- Limited variety of materials and colors.
- Absence of ornaments.
- Functional design.
- Prevalence of natural materials.
- Preference for sustainability.
Modular construction takes place in a factory-like setting, a protected environment that presents the optimal conditions to research and design innovative solutions. Our selection of houses not only focuses their innovation on designing modern looking construction, but on creating modern sustainable building solutions.
