In June, we wrote about Sherri Koones’ modular reference “Modular Mansions.” This month, we’re looking at another Koones modular reference, “Prefabulous.”

The books subtitle, “The house of your dreams delivered fresh from the factory,” skims the surface of modular home building’s allure but the rest of the book dives much deeper. Inside, Sherri gives us an up-close-and-personal look at the advantages and disadvantages of several types of modular homes, including custom log homes, concrete and steel-framed homes, and traditional bungalows.

The Cincinnati Enquirer had this to say about Sherri’s book:

“Prefabulous will shatter your misconceptions about small, boxy and modern structures. These prefabs are customized and so rich in detail and style they are hardly distinguishable from “traditionally” built homes. It’s hard to believe after seeing the photos, but each featured home was manufactured partially or completely in a controlled factory environment then moved to the site.”

Like Sherri’s Modular Mansions, Prefabulous is more of a coffee table book than a detailed reference. It’s packed with beautiful photography of several homes, both inside and out, and offers some very compelling reasons to join the modular movement.

As always, we bought a copy and will give it away to one Modular Musings reader chosen at random from this month’s comments. If you don’t want to wait that long and you’d like to pick up a copy for yourself (or as a Christmas gift perhaps?), the book is available on Amazon.com.
