TOKI / AFAD 410-Unit Housing Complex

Award Criteria

Architectural Excellence

​​Dorce's TOKI/AFAD project showcases efficient modular design for earthquake-prone regions. Village houses (75m²) feature optimized layouts with 1 bedroom, 1 children's room, kitchen, terrace, and separate bath/WC. Prefabricated steel modules ensure fast, high-quality construction with minimal waste. Fibercement exteriors blend with local aesthetics, while interiors offer modern finishes like laminate flooring and ceramic tiles. Adaptable layouts meet different family needs and abundant natural light enhances well-being. The project prioritizes safety and sustainability, exemplifying architectural excellence in disaster response.

Technical Innovation & Sustainability

Off-site construction in Dorce’s controlled factory fosters a multitude of innovations. Prefabricated steel structures arrive on-site ready for swift assembly, minimizing waste and environmental impact. The design leverages advanced materials like fiber cement for fire resistance and durability. Energy-efficient features like insulated walls and roofs reduce energy consumption. Modular construction also enables future reconfiguration or expansion, minimizing long-term environmental impact. Dorce’s commitment to sustainability extends beyond materials, with green building practices embedded throughout the construction process.

Cost Effectiveness

Factory-manufactured modules optimize material usage and minimize waste, reducing costs. Precise planning and prefabrication eliminate weather-related delays and minimize on-site labor, streamlining the construction process and saving time and money. Partnerships with local material suppliers further reduce costs. The modularity enables efficient use of space, maximizing the number of units within the designated footprint and delivering exceptional value for the investment. Additionally, the relocatable design allows for future adaptation or expansion, minimizing long-term costs.
