One of Jacque Fresco’s future construction concepts is that prefab components will be assembled by robotic cranes, and buildings will have an infinite number of possible design variations. Many perceive prefab construction to have unoriginal, cheap, cookie-cutter designs, but in reality it simply means that components are efficiently manufactured and assembled quickly like Legos. Traditional construction results in a ton of waste, is usually energy and resource inefficient, and less structurally strong than prefab construction.
