Home Delivery: Prepping the Prefab Housing Exhibition at MoMA
The New York Times 7.13.08

In January, the Museum of Modern Art announced their intentions to fill the vacant lot surrounding the museum with an exhibition of prefab housing in addition to displays in the interior galleries. Opening to the public on July 20, Home Delivery: Fabricating the Modern Dwelling is previewed in The New York Times Magazine. The exhibition covers the history of prefabricated homes since 1833 and we get a sneak peak at the assembly of the five full-size homes...

We're excited about this exhibit and hope you are too! FInd out more about the building process in Here Comes the Neighborhood and the accompanying slideshow.

Wow, I wonder if they got their hands on a Sears bungalow?

Is that thing they're installing *supposed* to look like the back of an old PC? I keep looking at it and thinking "so that's how they get the little men into the computer."
