Prefabulous: The House of Your Dreams, Delivered Fresh from the Factory

Prefabulous is the ultimate guide for anyone dreaming of a new home and considering prefabrication. Author Sheri Koones dispels the myths about prefab construction and shows that these homes can be as stylish, durable, and customizable as traditional site-built houses. Prefabricated homes are no longer limited to boxy designs―they can be warm, inviting, and architecturally stunning. Inside, you’ll discover the full range of prefab systems available today, including modular, panelized, timber frame, log, structural insulated panels (SIPs), steel framing, and even concrete systems. Koones explains the advantages and disadvantages of each method, helping you make informed decisions about cost, energy efficiency, and design flexibility. Packed with gorgeous photography and real-world examples, Prefabulous demonstrates how these homes come together―from factory floor to finished site. You’ll see how prefabrication reduces construction time, minimizes waste, and often results in a healthier, more energy-efficient home. The book also includes a foreword by Sarah Susanka, author of The Not So Big House, reinforcing the value of thoughtful design in modern living. Whether you’re a homeowner, builder, or design enthusiast, this book is your roadmap to creating a dream home that’s sustainable, affordable, and truly beautiful. Prefabrication isn’t just the future―it’s the smart choice for today.
