Ten prefabricated modules were assembled on site to create a space that challenges preconceived notions of what prefab can look like.
When Faisal and Sindhu Arabi decided to build a new family home in Walnut Creek, California, they recalled the prefab office they had previously constructed in their backyard. Impressed with the convenience and sustainability credentials of their cozy home workspace, they began to explore prefab housing and soon discovered L.A.-based Connect Homes was exactly what they were looking for.
Faisal and Sindhu Arabi live in the Connect Homes’ Connect 10 home with their 7-year-old daughter and 10-year-old son. Connect Homes was founded in 2013 and has built more than 100 homes in the past decade.

"We visited one of the homes built by Connect Homes and the design and aesthetic was very much in line with what we wanted for our home," says Sindhu. "The environmentally friendly construction, optimal footprint, and quick build time were all deciding factors. The additional convenience of not having to deal with the traditional build process and the challenges that come along with that was also appealing."
The covered porch is furnished with comfortable seats that allow the residents to engage with neighbors, while the timber screen helps maintain privacy for the interior.

Connect Homes is on a mission to elevate the everyday living experience by making beautiful modern design more accessible, and the company describes its clever prefab homes as "designed and built more like a high-performance automobile than a traditional home"—think precision manufacturing and efficiency, a sleek contemporary design, and high-end finishes.
The glazed entrance leads to a small sitting room in front of the dining area. Interior Designer Jennifer Runkle has furnished the space with a focus on neutral colors and natural materials—including a live-edge timber dining table and hanging timber shelves.
