Modularity; Real diversities of notion

Much academic work asserts a relationship between the designs of a complex system and the manner in which this system evolves over time. In particular, designs which are modular in nature are argued to be more "evolvable," in that, this evolution facilitates to make the future design and structure adaptations. In essence, modularity which is particularly important when a system must meet uncertain future demands creates "option value" with the respect to the new and improved designs. It is important for an architect to understand the limiting factors that will affect the design of a modular building. The modular construction is a meaning of improving production efficiency and worker safety in the construction industry. It rises into question of the modular buildings design quality, and whether or not, the qualification of the building process is also captured from the perspective of the architect. This study includes interviews with modular manufacturers and firms to extract information on the topic of innovation in the industry. Showing a case study project as a discussion platform, the opinions of experienced building professionals were explored to identify what is and what isn't possible.
