Cleared for landing - Concrete pads at the Palms House

CA6_LandingConcrete_Landing

To facilitate the transition between indoor and outdoor spaces, the Palms House has a few exterior stair landings (or palettes) that stick out beyond the building envelope of the modules. Visually, these pads continue the same materials inside and out so that the entire ground level of the home has poured concrete floors. We fabricated these pads in our factory, and they were  forklifted into place during the installation a few weeks ago.

Make way for prefab - Site preparations at the Palms House

Venice_DemoVenice_Demo3
Site preparations are plowing along for the Palms House in advance of the installation in the beginning of June. After the hand demolition, where reusable materials and appliances were removed from the old house, the bulldozer cleared out the remaining structure and materials. Then came the rough grading and trenching, and now we’re doing the installation of the mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems that will hook up to the house modules at predetermined locations. Soon we’ll start pouring the structural concrete footings and laying the CMU stem-wall foundation. Then after that… delivery day!
