Description:
Companion to a 2005-2006 exhibit that "presents a variety of approaches to prefab [housing] -- from houses owners can build from a kit of parts ... to those that arrive fully assembled." Features a timeline back to 1892 about prefab construction in the U.S., details about featured projects (such as the FlatPak house and the weeHouse one-room cabin), biographies of architects, and audio clips about the exhibit. From the Walker Art Center.
