As demand for modular structures rose by 40% in just one year due to natural disasters like the coronavirus and earthquakes, the global market for these buildings is projected to reach $153.7 billion by 2026. These increasingly popular structures are not only becoming common in housing but also in factories and hospitals, shaping the future of the construction industry. The growing interest has highlighted the need for a dedicated fair. In this context, Tureks International Fair Organization will be hosting Turkey’s first “Premo Prefabricated, Modular, Tiny House Construction & Decoration Fair” from February 3rd to 5th at the Istanbul Fair Center, aiming to attract 20,000 visitors as a key gathering point for the industry.
The coronavirus pandemic, which has affected the entire world, has brought about changes in many areas of our lives, not only in health. While some aspects of life have been negatively impacted, other areas have seen a surge in popularity. At the forefront of this change is the question of “how do we escape from pandemics and crowded places?” leading to the rising popularity of Tiny Houses. The tiny house movement, which gained momentum in the United States following the 2008 global financial crisis, seems to have caught on in Turkey during the pandemic. Beyond the typical sun, sea, and sand approach, these structures have introduced an alternative vacation style in Turkey.
