The Parker from More Housing
More Housing created The Parker home with high quality, practical, and multiple use-case housing in mind. The home can be quickly installed on foundation pads and remains relocatable.
This means that long term planning permission is not always necessary, and it can be deployed as a solution for social housing. The house is manufactured in the UK and targets The Future Homes Standard with considerations to minimum requirements to space and indoor air quality. The Parker has a high level of pre-manufactured value (PMV) and arrives plumbed, wired and partially furnished, with the kitchen and bathroom all being completed at the factory. This reduces site overheads, community disruption and ensures high levels of predictability and quality, whilst also enabling a faster delivery and lower waste. |
