Loblolly House

Taylor's Island, Maryland

KieranTimberlake Associates

In just under six weeks of construction, this 1,800-square-foot residence was assembled with prefabricated components onto an aluminum scaffolding system with the mere twist of a wrench. Elevated on a foundation of loblolly tree stumps, this two-story abode features prefabricated floor and ceiling cartridges that contain heating, ventilation, and electricity, and fully integrated mobile bedroom and bathroom units. A prefabricated wood rain screen clads the west facade, with polycarbonate-clad hangar doors on the east.
