The draw of prefab cabin kits and modular home designs is clear—they cost less than the traditional design & build process, can be completed by a handful of builders in a fraction of the time without heavy machinery, are efficient in energy consumption and layout, and stand out in a world of McMansions and subdevelopments. Australia’s Ecokit checks all these boxes.
Though in production since 2018, the emerging manufacturer of prefab homes, cabins, and barns just this past month introduced four new modern cabin kits of particular interest to design-driven folks like you and me. Mixing straight and angled walls with gable or mono-pitch roofs, the new designs find inspiration in classic A-Frame, rural barns, and Mid-Century urban homes.
