Nowadays, it has become increasingly difficult to buy a house. For many, the costs of new apartments are unaffordable and the possibilities of applying for a mortgage are increasingly limited; in short, taken all together this means that newlyweds are inclined to rent rather than buy an apartment or a house. 

But now thanks to this Italian company, Area Legno, things could be changing radically! In fact, this company intends to start a revolution and bring a sea change to the construction industry by producing "modular dwellings" (prefabricated foldable housing) that can be bought at a modest price. Let's take a look at what they are proposing! 

The project designed and produced by this Italian company is called M.A.DI HOME.

What if you want to decide the size of your modular home? No problem, there are the Tiny, that is to say, houses measuring 290 sq. ft. (27 sq. mt) ($33,150 / €28,000), the Young measuring 602 sq. ft. (56 sq. mt) ($54,450 / €46,000) and the Family obviously the largest, which in fact, proudly shows off its 904 sq. ft. (84 sq. mt) ($73,400 / €62,000). 

In closing, here is a practical video that will show you how easy it is to build one of these jewels of modern architecture.
