Modular
Mankind | Industrialization
and the Human Inhabitant Thesis
| 2009-2010 The
principal objective of this thesis was to investigate and emphasize the
sociological implications of high-density modular design. The intention of which was to: (a)
formulate a theoretical design strategy pertaining to industrialization and the
built environment, (b) understand the potential for modularity as a generative
tool for design, (c) explore the advantages and limitations of prefabrication,
and (d) propose an industrialized architectural revolution for the twenty-first-century. The
thesis proposes that in order for society to capitalize upon the benefits of
prefabrication, the vision of the module must not end at that of the singular
element, but rather must exist in conjuncture with its counterparts, creating
and delineating sustainable, high-density habitats for higher standards of
living. The
thesis investigation took place in two parts. First, within the realm of research, which lead to an
extensive discourse and case-study monograph. The second phase of investigation, relied heavily upon
exploration through design, and eventually culminated in a comprehensive design
proposal.
