Prefab homes are getting all the attention these days. The re-GROWTH pod is a cost-effective, pre-fabricated housing unit designed to help rebuild the fire-devastated regions of Australia. It’s a completely self-contained concrete service pod. The aim of the project is to offer a fully prefabricated, quickly erectable and safe central service pod. Initially, the house pod is meant to be used as a temporary bathroom and kitchen for those who are in the early stages of rebuilding their homes, but the true purpose is to have the permanent home. Rather than a temporary solution, the pod is the first building block in re-establishing a home. The housing units can be delivered and connected to services quickly, so that the people can start the re-building, without the worry of being getting displaced from their communities. The re-GROWTH pod is fireproof, waterproof, pest proof, earthquake resistant, recyclable and extremely durable. Check out the video for the re-Growth pod assembly animation after the jump.
