The Prefab House Changeover, designed by TEST studio, is a small red dwelling situated on shotcrete pillars in Barcelona's woodlands, repurposing a deteriorated house. The project highlights three replacement strategies, ultimately choosing a modular, prefabricated system that affirms flexible living. The design incorporates eight 3x3x3 meter modules stacked on a reinforced concrete base, minimizing terrain impact. Internally, the house's minimalist and industrial aesthetic focuses on adaptability with no fixed elements. Its wooden outer shell provides the option to fully embrace or shelter from nature, allowing for versatile living according to residents' preferences.
The Prefab House Changeover showcases an innovative approach to home building, revitalizing outdated structures with modular, prefabricated designs that emphasize flexibility and integration with nature.
This modular dwelling, with its 60 square meters and eight balloon-framed modules, illustrates how architectural adaptations can breathe new life into neglected sites while respecting their surroundings.
By prioritizing adaptability and minimalist interiors, the design of the Prefab House allows residents to tailor their living experience, ensuring the space evolves over time according to their needs.
The testing studio's implementation of a wooden outer shell that encases glazing enables the structure to harmoniously connect with its woodland backdrop, enhancing the living experience.
