The Most Impressive Prefab Homes of 2024

"While the home is on a single level, the terrain around it descends steeply," explains Studio Saxe. "One side aligns with the forest floor, while the other is raised above the ground. The perimeter walkway takes visitors from moss-covered roots up to the treetops." The deep roof, slatted screens, and raised foundation are designed for the region’s tropical climate, while photovoltaic and hydroelectric systems make the home self-sufficient. Because of the remote site, the steel components were prefabricated and delivered during the dry season.
