As an alternative to traditional architecture, MINIMOD is a construction system that investigates different combinations of modular architecture. The prefabricated method allows the modules to be reconfigured in a way that best adapts to different landscapes and users. With four main house typologies — Retrat, Cabin, Shelter, Spot — the project was designed so that they all have a very similar organization, consisting of one or two bedrooms, a bathroom and a common area.

MINIMOD is also a sensory experience, presenting itself as a reinterpretation of the primitive shelter from a contemporary perspective. Its compact design interacts with the places where it is installed and functions as a device to rediscover nature, connecting users to their deepest roots. new experience is an invitation to dwellings that expand the boundary between nature and artifice.
