In a world where sustainability and mobility are becoming increasingly important, the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC) has unveiled a groundbreaking project ? MO.CA (MOBILE CATALYST). This modern mobile home, crafted from zero-kilometer natural materials and employing cutting-edge digital construction techniques, marks a new option for eco-friendly living. Developed by a team of students and researchers from IAAC’s Masters program in Advanced Ecological Buildings & Biocities (MAEBB), MO.CA promises to redefine the way we think about mobile living spaces.

MO.CA isn’t just another mobile home ? it’s a vision of the future. Built entirely from sustainably harvested dowel-laminated wood sourced from IAAC’s Valldaura Labs in the Collserola Natural Park of Barcelona, MO.CA represents a fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation. This self-sufficient dwelling is designed to accommodate two individuals comfortably while boasting essential domestic amenities, all while minimizing its environmental footprint.
At the heart of MO.CA lies a commitment to self-sufficiency and mobility. Inspired by the human desire for freedom and exploration, the team behind MO.CA sought to create a home that not only meets contemporary needs but also contributes to its surroundings. Thus, MO.CA is more than just a mobile home ? it’s a catalyst for change, fostering collaboration, and knowledge sharing wherever it goes.
