BoKlok housing appears to have little more than 'prefab' in common with those early UK versions.
They are constructed through factory processes which allow them to be built in quality controlled conditions more efficiently than traditional methods, using a highly insulated closed panel system, with a range of cladding systems.
They have a flexible open-plan layout, with high ceilings and large windows, giving a light, airy and contemporary feel. They come with a host of additional features as standard, such as extra height rooms to give a feeling of space, wooden flooring throughout and fitted kitchens.
And, not surprisingly, they come with free interior design advice from IKEA, as well as an IKEA furniture voucher.
DIY enthusiasts with a plot of land are unlikely to get their hands on an individual BoKlok. 'Separate building uses too sophisticated techniques. We're not saying never - at some stage there may be potential, but not at the moment,' says Prole.
