Description:
Design for prefabricated house. Exterior perspective shows two figures in process of constructing modular structure. At center, four-module building with wide, flat-angled roof; individual modules capped by separate roof units, one of which is being passed from the figure on the ground to the one on the roof (dressed in red and yellow, respectively). In the foreground, infrastructure including water main and electricity tower positioned among additional housing components. At right, additional electrical towers recede into distance and are interspersed by green objects (a vehicle with figure and a barn in the far distance). At right, another modular structure positioned near additional tower. House in blue Cello-Tak with surrounding landscape and sky in hues of salmon or orange-pink.
