#modular architecture

[artchvies]

hey babies i come to you as a tired architecture student in need of help

i’m working on an article + seminar presentation about modular architecture and desperately want to include f1 team hospitalities in it, but i cannot for the life of me find any proper content or sources on how they’re built, who assembles them, or the logistics behind them

does anyone know anything? sites, interviews, videos, names of contractors, literally crumbs of information would help!!!

I finally finished and printed my 4th iteration of the connector. It features now a thicker shell and some sort of infill grid that stablizes it more. I am quite happy with the result, very excited to built the 1:1 Model now!

SFMOMA becomes first museum to acquire Nakagin Capsule Tower pod

[inbredgf]

I LOVE this project I’m so glad it’s getting some love.

This tower is the first architectural capsule design EVER, and the concept was for individual units to act as residential/office space for businessmen in the Tokyo area.

The capsules are intended to be interchangeable and recyclable, each module can be placed adjacent to the main structure and the design would still work. This is part of the reason it was able to be in relative disrepair for so long while still having a small fraction of inhabited units.

Heartbreakingly the Nagakin Capsule tower fell into functional disrepair (despite having a long waiting list of potential renters) around 2012 and was demolished in 2022:( The only capsule construction by Kurosawa that still stands today is Capsule House-K(1973), which I believe is currently owned by his son and is available to rent on Airbnb today!

Paul Clemence captures the soothing curves of Ibiúna House, a weekend retreat in a rural town just outside São Paulo. Designed by Brazilian architect Rodrigo Ohtake as a place to escape the rush of the city and enjoy proximity to nature, his family house quietly rethinks the image of modular architecture — though, at first glance, it doesn’t read as such. That was part of the challenge, leading Ohtake to group together a series of rectangular prefabricated units and then introduce voids between them. As open spaces, they serve as shared areas for cooking, eating, and gathering, each enjoying direct or indirect views of the land surrounding the house.

The house sits on a 20,000-square-meter plot and reflects a wider goal to explore how modular systems can be made more livable, surprising, and expressive, without losing the environmental and construction benefits they offer. To unify the structure, a curved industrial roof arcs across the top, while a series of blue perforated steel walls wrap the exterior in soft, sculptural gestures. These sinuous elements break up the geometry of the underlying modules, ensure privacy, and allow the house to blend visually into its forested surroundings.

Efficient Web Application Management with Modular Designs

When designing with modularity in web application development the sole main focus is enhancing efficiency, scalability, and maintainability . This actually possible by breaking down an application into independent, reusable modules. In contrast to a monolithic approach, where all components are tightly coupled, modular architectural design structures the application into separate, self-contained units. In such case, you can modularize the account verification, product management, and payment processing.

This separation allows web developers to work on individual modules without disrupting the entire system, making updates, debugging, and feature additions more manageable. Just like by following Laravel’s modular principles using Service Providers, Repositories, and Packages, teams can develop cleaner, more structured codebases that are easier to scale and maintain.

Support Parallel Development and Flexibility

Modular architecture enables software development teams to build, test, and deploy individual features independently. If one module requires changes or optimizations, it can be modified without affecting the rest of the application, reducing downtime and improving development speed. So, the modular architecture is particularly beneficial for large-scale applications like an office furniture online system, where different teams may handle inventory, customer management, and order processing as separate modules. Try implementing modularization with Laravel, you'll achieve a robust, high-performing, and future-proof web application that efficiently adapts to growing demands.

Modular Building Design - Phnx Modular

In a modular building design, each module is constructed in a controlled factory environment, ensuring precision and quality. These modules can be customized to meet specific project requirements, offering a high degree of flexibility in design. Once completed, the modules are transported to the construction site and assembled quickly, significantly reducing construction time and costs.
