Plant Prefab Just Unveiled its Most Advanced Homes to Date

Architecture 20-2-2020 DWell 275

Plant Prefab debuts a new building system and improved turnkey homes with baked-in smart tech.

Plant Prefab just unveiled a new tiny home at Palm Springs Modernism Week—and it’s packed with smart technology. With a simple voice command, the LivingHome 10 can dim the lights, provide WiFi access, or tell you a joke. Usually smart tech features require aftermarket upgrades—but these extras will now be baked into all of Plant Prefab’s homes.

As before, buyers can head to the company’s website to tweak designs by a star-studded roster of architects—including Ray Kappe and Yves Béhar—or they can hire an architect to work with Plant’s in-house designers for a completely custom home.

Plant Prefab’s LivingHome 10 is a 406-square-foot tiny house packed with onboard smart tech. It’s designed to slot into dense urban environments, so it’s ideal as a rental property or guest house.
