The implementation of a flexible housing system relies upon a synthesis of many factors. Of these, the relationships between society, technology, and economics are fundamental. For a flexible housing concept to be successful, it must necessarily respond to the inevitability of social and technological change, while also being an affordable alternative to the escalating costs of conventional housing. This thesis explores the issues, components, and planning strategies essential to the development of an industrialized system which can, in turn, respond to changing user needs over time. / Master of Architecture
