Another success of the Post War 'Prefab' Era. Over 35,000 of these houses were built in the UK. Just like the AIROH Prefab Bungalow, they had a 'Design Life' of between 10 to 15 Years - Yet many are still viable properties today! Admittedly, times change, and the 1940s 'Utilitarian Vernacular' has given-way to Double Glazing, Insulation, and Central Heating. The version shown here is a Type C (Detached).The main Production Model was the Type A1 (Semi-Detached); Not too dissimilar to the Type C, except that the Windows to the Lounge and Bedroom 1 are as a Single Frame. Personally, my preference is for the Type C, as the Frames are 'Balanced' perfectly, following the original design of Architect, Sir Frederick Gibberd. #Architect #BISF #Philippines #Prefab #Steel_House
