American start-up Blokable has devised a solution to traditional methods of home construction, which it describes as “too long and complicated”.
The firm aims to “empower communities to build their own housing” with smart, stackable, modular units.
The homes, or “Bloks”, are built to order in a factory in Vancouver and can be shipped across North America, with a cost per square foot ranging from $150 to $350.
Bloks can be stacked up to five storeys high, with the cost of each unit varying from $25,000 to $100,000.
