Designed by Estudio Borrachia Arquitectos in collaboration with GB Arquitectos, the LABT-20 Modular Home is a 31-square-meter residential prototype completed in 2022 in City Bell, Argentina. This small-scale project is part of a larger, serial production system of adaptable, prefabricated modules that can be modified to suit various needs and environments, from a vacation habitat in a remote landscape to part of a larger housing complex. The modules were designed to be versatile, compact, and to integrate harmoniously with their natural surroundings, offering a significant upgrade from a simple shelter by proposing a more complete living experience. The specific 10.5-meter-long LABT-20 unit in City Bell was installed as a permanent residence for one or two people, complementing an existing family home on the same plot. The module is crafted from wood and features an open living and dining area with furniture that can be converted into additional beds, offering spatial flexibility. A fixed kitchen and bathroom form the "wet core" of the home. At the opposite end, a bedroom is separated by sliding panels for privacy and can also integrate with the bathroom. The design emphasizes a connection to nature. A large window at the front opens onto an outdoor deck, which acts as a patio and provides access to a staircase. A "sailor ladder" on the side of the unit leads to a green roof, which serves as both a terrace and a viewpoint. This rooftop space, covered with local flora, adds to the home's usable area and helps it blend with the landscape. The entire structure, built in a workshop and delivered by truck, sits off the ground, ensuring minimal contact with the soil and functional continuity between indoor and outdoor spaces.
