New Dwell Homes by Joel Turkel & Marmol Radziner


Yesterday, Dwell announced the introduction of new prefab houses to their Dwell Homes Collection. According to the Dwell, they are dedicated to "bringing the best of modern pre-fab to life and supporting the architects that make that happen". We've got our hands on some renderings of the new homes which look interesting...

 
 

The homes are a collaboration between Dwell, architect Joel Turkel, Marmol Radziner Prefab and Lindal Cedar. The new homes feature natural materials, are designed for sustainability and will be available in 6 standardized configurations which can be customized by the homeowners.

Shown above, left to right:

The homes debut this weekend at Dwell on Design.

    A prefab by Marmol Radziner is a prefab I can believe in!

    Fantastic. And fantastically out of reach for me. Starting at $500k for 1755sq ft, plus land, analysis and prep, plumbing...

    Marmol Radziner ROCKS! What's half a million for something that looks like a million bucks?

    I am a prefab fan and a huge fan of Radziner. BUT, wouldn't it be great if they designed beautiful and affordable prefab housing?

    Prefab means they can rip you off even more. Apparently.

    I agree with the previous commentators, too expensive.

    Also, what is the point of advocating sustainability if it is out reach for the masses? I understand receiving quality pay for quality work, but really how many folks can truly afford it?
