Beyond Capsule Houses | Astroboat: Defining the “Unit” and “Modular” Future of Prefabricated Buildings


The capsule house was once Astroboat’s entry point into the prefabricated construction industry, helping more people recognize this fast-deployable spatial solution. However, Astroboat has never stopped there.After years of continuous development and technical accumulation, Astroboat has evolved into a comprehensive prefabricated building solution provider, integrating R&D, design, manufacturing, and installation.

Rethinking Prefabricated Construction

Throughout its product development journey, Astroboat has consistently focused on three fundamental questions

How can buildings be delivered faster?

How can spatial configurations become more flexible?

How can products better fit real-world usage scenarios?

Based on these principles, Astroboat has developed two core product systems:
Unit Series and Modular Series, each tailored to different spatial forms and project scales.

 

Unit Series: Standardized Single-Unit Space Solutions

The Unit Series represents Astroboat’s standardized single-unit product line. It includes: Fully prefabricated capsule houses, Apple Cabin, Modunest and On-site assembled modular capsules.

Built on industrialized manufacturing, these units are fully completed in factories, including structure, interior finishing, and equipment installation. Once transported to the site, they can be quickly installed and put into use.

Through standardized design and factory-based production, the Unit Series enables: High-efficiency manufacturing, Rapid deployment,Consistent product quality. This makes it ideal for applications such as:

Glamping resorts, Boutique hotels, Vacation cabins, Cultural tourism accommodations. In essence, the Unit Series represents Astroboat’s interpretation of “plug-and-play” architecture.

 

Modular Series: Scalable Modular Building Solutions

While the Unit Series focuses on standalone spaces, the Modular Series is designed for large-scale and multi-story construction projects. Using modular construction technology, buildings are divided into factory-produced volumetric units, with most processes completed off-site and final assembly conducted on-site.

Key Technical Approaches:

1. Pods + Modules
Combines functional pods with structural modules. High-level factory integration ensures efficient on-site embedding and structural coordination, improving both flexibility and industrialization.
Suitable for multi-story and large-scale projects.

2. Box Modular System
Uses volumetric box units with completed structure, enclosure, and partial interiors. On-site stacking enables rapid construction.
Ideal for hotels, apartments, and dormitories.

3. Box + Panel System
Combines foldable box modules with prefabricated panel systems. Balances prefabrication rate and transportation efficiency.
Suitable for resorts, camps, and lightweight buildings.

4. Customized Engineering Solutions
Tailored prefabricated solutions for large-scale projects. Integrates structure, enclosure, and interior systems while complying with international standards. Applicable to government housing and overseas developments.

 

Advantages of the Modular Series

Higher Construction Efficiency
Most processes are completed in factories, significantly reducing on-site construction time.

Stable and Consistent Quality
Industrialized production minimizes uncertainties associated with traditional construction.

Ideal for International Projects
Modular transportation and assembly make cross-border implementation more efficient, especially for overseas developments.

It extends modular construction from single units to large-scale architectural systems.
