The Modular House:


This structure was built from 1965 to 1973 by Paul Thoryk, John Edmiston, Glen Jackson, and faculty advisor Don Koberg. This was built with an eight by eight module vertically and horizontally. It was done as an experimental house with a steel frame and a wood infill. It has been difficult to keep this structure waterproof because of the expansion differences of the materials. Currently this house has a caretaker.
