沙漠里的小屋
Frank Lloyd Wright meetsmodern day prefab in the stunning Mod.Fab home,developed by students at Taliesin West incollaboration with their Dean Victor Sidy and Inhabitat favorite Jennifer Siegal.The goal of the collaboration was to build a prototype prefab conducive toelegant and sustainable living within the heart of the desert landscape.It only took a single picture for us to become instantaneous fans, and frompassive solar design to photovoltaic panels and SIPs we’re thoroughly impressed with the project’ssustainable elements.The Mod.Fab prefabruns a modest 960 feet and currently stands nearly completed on the campusgrounds at the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture Taliesin West, located just outside ofPhoenix, AZ. Sourcing suppliers local to the area, the Taliesin team decided togo with SIPs(structural insulated panels) for the surrounding structure of the Prairie Mod,which allowed them to cut down on on-site construction time while reducingconstruction waste.
In addition to the SIP skin, the project will use a combinationof passive andactive environmental control systems including naturalventilation and lighting, and a gray water recycling systemalong with water catchment.Solar panels are installed adjacent to the bedroom, providing both privacy andpower to the project while keeping costs down since the panels did not have toget integrated into the roof. The hope is that the structure will be entirelyself sufficient in the end.
Theproject, entirely built by the students, now sits nearly complete furnishedwith furniture borrowed from Design WithinReach.
