This flexible prototype, which can be subdivided with partitions for a more defined floor plan, will be a model for further developments, according to Sobek. He wants to bring these advances to taller, six- or eight-story structures and reduce the time it takes to install this prefab home from 24 to 18 hours, creating plug and play technology that can be a boon for future urban development. "As urban centers become more and more dense, these prefabricated units make more and more sense," he says. "They're light, require no workers on site or stir up any dust. Within the next 12 months, we will see several variations and the next generation of B10."
