The challenge of adding substantial living space to established homes has long been complicated by structural constraints, extended construction timelines, and the inevitable disruption to family life. Traditional second-storey additions typically require months of invasive construction work, forcing families to relocate or endure significant inconvenience whilst compromising the architectural integrity of existing structures.

PIQUE's prefabricated pod system represents a fundamental reimagining of how residential additions can be conceived and delivered. Designed by Keen Architecture for a family of six, this pioneering project demonstrates how three precision-manufactured modules can transform a mid-century home by adding 130 square metres of living space whilst challenging conventional perceptions about modular construction aesthetics and capabilities.
