london-based studio facit homes has developed a pre-fabrication system that provides a mobile production facility (MPF) onto the site. the unit includes a full spectrum of building tools and


materials necessary to complete the construction of a physical structure. using the drawings from fully defined 3D computer models, a shipping container is transformed into a local


manufacturing site, where sheets of sustainable spruce plywood are individually CNC cut according to each the digital files.


the unique ‘D-process’ results in an accurate measurement for material quantity, electrical positioning and plumbing placement for an efficient construction method. build-time for each


dwelling chassis can be as quick as three-days based on foundation preparation and site conditions.


the companies recent development includes the design of a pre-fabricated hotel in the trees located in the grounds  of the 300 year old grand georgian mansion harptree court near bristol. by


working closely with engineers,  an innovative structural concept has been created to allow for the framework to be assembled using components  that hang off ropes in the the forest. built


using entirely natural materials, the facade of the house includes  sustainably harvested larch cladding and cedar shingles to cover the roof.
