MO.CA Mobile House / IAAC

MO.CA is a mobile home made of zero-kilometer cross-laminated timber (DLT), and designed within the Master in Advanced Ecological Buildings & Biocities (MAEBB) program developed at the Valldaura Labs campus of the Institute of Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC). Throughout history, people have exercised their fundamental human right to freedom by combining self-sufficiency with mobility, from migratory tribes to interstellar explorers. In recent decades, the quest for self-sufficiency has been driven by the recognition of global climate change and the associated need for innovative, fossil-fuel-independent housing. Even more recently, the rise of remote work opportunities, facilitated by communication technologies and accelerated following the COVID-19 era, has renewed general interest in freedom of movement.
