Nifty camping huts from Newfoundland.
Quoted: It is a 'continental camping hut' from Newfoundland Leisure Lodges, which appears to have nothing to do with Newfoundland and makes otherwise fairly conventional prefabs. It is 13'6 long and 8'-6 wide and can be dropped off a truck

Ikea has begun selling prefab houses in Sweden and is rolling them out in the UK.
Quoted: BoKlok homes don't exactly come in flatpacks, but they're not far off. The timber-framed buildings are almost entirely prefabricated. They are usually brought to the site on the back of trucks as pre-assembled units, like Portakabins, with the interiors already fitted out. Each apartment is made up of two of these units, which are simply moved into position by crane. Put on the roof and exterior wall cladding, plumb and wire it in, and it's ready to live in. The typical BoKlok arrangement is an L-shaped, two-storey block with three apartments on each floor. One such block can be put up in a day...

You must be Eric's friend before you can comment on this Fave.Are you looking to buy a prefab house?
Sort of. I don't really have the money yet but I am purchasing vacation property out in Walla Walla where I'd like to do something energy efficient, carbon neutral, stylish, takes advantage of the views, etc. in the next few years. The space of pre-fab is really interesting with some amazing alternatives available. I may so something really small to start and then add in the coming years...
