With the aim to provide a portable building solution that is tailored to suit the site, climate and desired learning outcomes in an efficient, sustainable and adaptable way, Architectus designed a system titled, eMOD (Educational Modular Offsite Design). It is an adaptable modular design system comprising two separate modules 4.5m x 15m that can be configured to create a building solution to suit the site, climate and learning outcomes. More images and architects’ description after the break.

This interactive educational design App allows you to explore, discover and create possibilities of the eMOD system. The App has three modes, Learn, Create and Cheat. Each mode provides an opportunity to experience the versatility of the eMOD system, and find a solution to future proof your school: - Learn Mode: Teaches the user the fundamentals of what eMOD is and how to use it. - Create Mode: Allows the user to design, develop, test, furnish and build a modular building (in a 3D environment). - Cheat Mode: Enables the user to choose from a number of pre-defined scenarios which demonstrate eMOD’s adaptability across any location, climate or building type.
