“The only constant is change. This is true in our personal lives – and even more so in our working environments.” – USM In times of growing issues like sustainability and rapid densification of global cities, modular architecture could form a much needed solution for pressing questions. A modular design has the big advantage of being able to adapt to changing circumstances, making the still prevalent choice for complete demolition and rebuild absolute. A modular design could grow along with the office or family and change its function when necessary.

Step 3: Export to Photoshop

Step 4: Publish on Archello
