One of the world’s most famous homes has been turned into a flatpack-style kit – letting buyers build their own version from scratch.
The legendary Eames House has been reimagined as a futuristic modular system that can be assembled using prefabricated parts.
Dubbed the “Eames Pavilion System”, the sleek homes start from around £244 per square foot.

The eye-catching builds were unveiled at Milan Design Week, bringing the iconic mid-century design bang up to date.
Buyers can customise the layouts – creating anything from compact studios to full two-storey homes, as reported by Luxury Property News.
The properties are made from interchangeable parts including aluminium frames, glass panels and wood.
They can even be expanded, reconfigured or adapted over time, making them as flexible as they are stylish.
The concept is inspired by the original Eames House, first designed in the 1940s and widely regarded as one of the most influential homes ever created.
Now, decades later, its signature look is being revived for a new generation.
Eames Demetrios, director of the Eames Office and grandson of the original designers, said: “We were always holding out for something else – a true systems approach.
“Not a facsimile or collector’s edition, but a fully engineered architectural ecosystem.”
The new system has been developed over nearly three years, blending the original vision with modern technology.
Antonio Navarro, creative director at manufacturing partner Kettal, said: “The goal is evolution, not stylistic reproduction.”
Each home is manufactured in sections before being assembled on site.
They can be used as permanent homes, holiday lets, offices or even luxury garden rooms.
Designers say the system is also more sustainable – with parts that can be repaired, replaced or reused instead of thrown away.
