ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
We would like to thank all the great people at HTA who have helped design and deliver some
of the inspirational modular projects that have helped advance the industry and contribute to
the success of our practice. It is because of their hard work that we were asked to write this
book. Our thanks go to John Fleming and his team at Tide Construction and Vision Modular
Systems for leading the way in defining the astonishing possibilities of modular housing. It
is because of their hard work that there is even a need to write this book.
We are most grateful to Simon Toplis, Ronan Glynn, Kwame Ohene-Adu and Ana Raducu
for sharing their expertise; to Mark Farmer and Donna Macfadyen from Cast Consulting for
writing Chapter 5; and to architects Metropolitan Workshop, Assael Architecture and Pollard
Thomas Edwards, as well as Michael Hough of MJH Structural Engineers, Maey Leow at TW-
Asia and Aurélie Cleraux at Bouygues, for their contributions to the case studies.
Particular thanks go to Roanna Thetford and Nerea Bermejo for the inspiring illustrations;
and to Rachel Hardman and Kate McFadden for their tireless work cataloguing the images
and securing the appropriate permissions, through countless revisions.
Thanks also to Tom Bent at ETP Scotland for his assistance with research into embodied
energy, to Henry Mickleburgh for information on international markets, and Dr Wei Pan at
HKU for information on Hong Kong, and to Dickon Robinson and Claire Bennie for their own
modular memories.
Thanks to Ginny Mills and Clare Holloway at RIBA Publishing for commissioning the
book and for their patience and forbearance in managing us bringing it to a conclusion.
