If you go to 101 George Street in, you’ll see an impressive building made with steel and glass: the world’s tallest towers are being built using modular manufacturing: The two towers will be 38 and 44 storeys high and are expected to contain 546 flats. It’s quite of a performance.</p><p>Factory-built housing may have had negative associations with mass market, uninspiring and low quality constructions for decades. But this is changing. With new technologies and materials, off-site construction is promising to offer not only affordable houses but also sustainable and aethetically challenging homes. It defenitely has advantages over traditional construction.
