In Hide n Seek we reported how architecture and design firm Standard with Dwell recently showed off their modern gem secluded high in the LA hills.
Now more is happening above the LA skyscrapers - this time Marmol Radziner has introduced their modern prefab house called Hollywood Hybrid, a 2,576 square foot sustainable house with a minimal carbon footprint.
Here is what we learn from Inhabitat:
Called a “hybrid” because the house combines prefab with site-built construction, the ground floor of the home includes two large rooms that are built into the foundation of the house. Besides that, the house is entirely comprised of prefabricated modules on the upper two stories. The modules came fully finished with plumbing, electrical, and built-in casework and the kitchen module is complete with appliances already hardwired. Eight weeks from now, the homeowners should be able to move in and unpack their boxes in their new 3-bedroom 3.5 bath home.
The last time we heard from Marmol was back in March with Rincon 5. More new designs are welcome. Read post in Inhabitat.
