Architecture firm Wittman Estes designs the Whidbey Puzzle Prefab home in Seattle. It offers a new take on a sustainable modular housing unit which measures about 600 sq ft. It is a compact prototype that rests on the Whidbey Island in Washington State. It was constructed to highlight how prefab homes can minimize the impacts it has on the environment while offering a flexible lifestyle.
The Whidbey Puzzle Prefab is crafted with a structure that could be altered as needed. It is comprised of four sections that could be reconfigured to accommodate a wide range of environments. Whether users are nestled in the forest or in suburban neighborhoods, it integrates with ease without disrupting its surrounding landscape to easily adapt and evolve.
