Design big rather than build big, at Arkular we see a house as more than just a place to live, designing homes for connection, well-being, and personal fulfillment. Read on to view more modular homes that prioritise less is more to make every day life easier and more enjoyable.
4. Right-sized Architectural Footprints – Combining Flexibility, Adaptability & Durability
Responding to your needs both now and in the future. Our homes are customised to you and your lifestyle, enhancing liveability and providing versatility and flexibility for changing needs.
Right Sized Architectural Footprints
We focus on homes that are efficiently scaled to meet functional, environmental, and aesthetic needs. We minimise waste and optimise resources while ensuring that each space serves a specific purpose. This approach not only allows for flexibility and adaptability over time but also promotes harmony with the surrounding environment.
Clever Floorplans
We take great care in crafting a floorplan that works for you, your lifestyle and your family, enhancing livability and flexibility. These considered floorplans are highly functional and can be adapted for your needs as the years progress.
Considered Modular Architecture
Flexibility is the true strength of modular designed homes. Every site presents its own unique challenges and opportunities, so we tweak and tailor the design until it’s made to fit you to the location, budget and lifestyle. Our designs can also be modified for tight and steeply sloping sites if necessary.

Flinders House with Garden by Jim Fogarty – 66m2
Sustainable and stylish, this compact modular home is a modern take on a fishing cottage with beautiful garden designed by Jim Fogarty.
At 66m2 this compact design allows for ample outdoor space on the quarter acre block. As the land had never been built on before, it was important to the clients to use prefabricated design and construction.
By using these off-site manufacturing techniques it ensured minimal disturbance to wildlife and impact to the earth.
