Awards for innovation, design and architecture have been presented to a ground breaking project built by offsite construction specialist and Portakabin subsidiary, Yorkon. Moho, which was developed by Urban Splash, is the first apartment scheme in the private sector to be built off-site. The scheme has been cited as a step forward in the use of off-site construction, helping to address issues such as quality control and the shortage in skilled labour. Modular construction involves the manufacture and fitting out of apartments in a factory environment. This is claimed to facilitate safer working, better quality and control of costs.
