Summary |
"Prefab Modern is the first book to catalogue for the homebuyer the array of affordable and distinctive alternatives now available and the elements that go into considering whether to buy prefab." "Covering the wealth of material on this subject and drawing from the design studios of some of today's most important internationally recognized architects, the book details not only the variety of tasteful prefabs available in generously illustrated designer profiles, but also outlines the historical origins of prefab and considerations and preparations before your prefab arrives. An exhaustive sources section provides the most up-to-date references - domestic and international - for innovative design. Prefab Modern is a uniquely comprehensive book and the only one for those interested in building prefab today."--BOOK JACKET |
