    2013 R+D Awards Winner: EcoMod

    The University of Virginia is redefining the notion of high-performance, modular housing, beginning in the neighborhoods that need it most.

    5 MIN READ
    EcoMod recently completed two prefab houses in South Boston, Va. Sited side-by-side, the structures look nearly identical, but the one on the left is designed to Passive House standards—a challenge given the area’s hot, muggy summers and cold winters—while the other serves as a control house against which to compare building performance. Both use materials rated with the team’s system of radial charts that quantify key project goals.
