OFIS Arhitekti combines modular Living Units to create pop-up library overlooking Ljubljana
Slovenian studio OFIS Arhitekti has found a new use for the micro house it designed earlier this year ? the modular structure recently served as a temporary library in the grounds of Ljubljana Castle.
OFIS Arhitekti worked in collaboration with fellow architects C+C and C28, engineering firm AKT and contractor Permiz to create the Living Units ? modular rooms that can be combined vertically or horizontally to create larger structures.
The units are designed to suit a variety of locations, climates and terrains. They were first presented at Milan design week earlier this year as a prototype for a modular home ? but the designers are now considering a wider variety of uses.
Each of the angular modules measures 2.5 metres wide, 4.5 metres long and 2.7 metres high. They are designed to work as a single cell, with enough room inside for a bed, kitchen and bathroom.
The interior spaces of the units are also flexible. They can be reconfigured when used in combination, so the sleeping areas are separated from the kitchen and lounge.
