Pre-fabricated homes, though simple to construct, can often limit your needs. That’s the problem interior design group Bert and May was looking solve when it teamed up with architecture firm Box9. Their solution? Bert’s Boxes, which combine functionality with aesthetics.
Able to be assembled on site in less than 24 hours, the pre-fabricated offerings come in three varieties: the one-bedroom (525 square feet; $186,800), two-bedroom (670 square feet; $217,900), and little box (250 square feet; $62,000). The layouts are pre-determined, but building materials and location are up to the customer. Some desired locations may need specialized infrastructure given the Boxes’ limitations, so Bert and Max sends a technical team to work onsite with its customers, ensuring its creation satisfies their needs.
Customers start by choosing the format they’d like before selecting the materials (cladding, flooring, kitchen, and paints). That’s really the hard part, given that each box is fully furnished and utilities are handled by a team of technicians. From there, customers just have to wait 14 weeks before the box is delivered and constructed at their desired location.
Although it technically falls under the qualifications of a mobile house, Bert’s Boxes are built like a standard home (see evidence in the video above). They can fit just about anywhere, but they look best in your backyard or garden.
