The plywood timber blocks can be assembled and reassembled together in a variety of different kinds of spaces, much like lego, offering a wide range of possibilities for designing adaptable spaces. Pre-fabrication and assembly of Block Type A also requires very little specialised tools or expertise, making the system accessible to everyone with minimal training.
