A recent research by scientists from the Physical Research Laboratory and IIT Gandhinagar highlights cloud formation at low altitudes over Ahmedabad, impacting the city’s climate and rainfall patterns. In this scenario, how prefab homes are leading the evolution of the ‘home’ as a ‘shelter’ against natural forces – to know more, continue reading.
Climate change is no longer just theoretical talk. Its impact is far and wide, affecting our lives in more ways than one. As per the latest joint research by scientists of PRL, IIT Gandhinagar, Isro-Space Applications Centre, Ahmedabad, Scripps Institution of Oceanography in California and University De la Reunion in France. (source: Times of India) , Ahmedabad is facing a bizarre phenomenon. During post-monsoon and winter months, clouds over the city are forming at nearly half their usual altitude — at just 1,044 m, when they should ideally be floating above 2,324 m.
This change is transforming Ahmedabad’s semi-arid climate, bringing sudden downpours, dust storms, extreme summer heat, prolonged cloud cover, and higher nighttime temperatures. These shifts are influencing consumer choices and driving technological evolution even in sectors previously resistant to change – home construction being one of them.
Construction of personal spaces hasn’t seen much innovation over a long time horizon. While methodologies in large-scale infrastructure have evolved, changes in homebuilding technology have remained minimal. This has led to inefficiencies, cost overruns, and poor adaptability to changing weather and consumer preferences. However, the advent of prefab homes is ushering in a positive shift in the market. With a focus on the weekend-home segment, Modvista, through its ready-to-build prefab homes, is leading this much-needed transformation.
Prefab homes are built using innovative technology and high-quality materials, ensuring long-term durability and resident comfort amid changing weather conditions. Prefab homes by Modvista are the ideal response to Ahmedabad’s evolving climate.
Here are a few key reasons why:
1- Best Suited for Rising Temperatures
The mean temperature of Ahmedabad is steadily rising, with summer days reaching 46–48°C. Traditionally built homes made of concrete and bricks tend to absorb and retain heat, making interiors uncomfortably warm.
Modvista Prefab Homes offer a smart solution to this challenge. Built using insulated panels and MS frames, they effectively block intense sunlight and reduce heat absorption, keeping interiors cool even during peak summers. This approach significantly lowers reliance on air conditioning, reducing both electricity bills and carbon footprint.
2- Safeguards Against Unseasonal Rains
Extended monsoons, high humidity, and unseasonal rains bring numerous challenges for homeowners – leaky ceilings, mold, and moisture-induced damage that compromise interiors and structural integrity.
Prefab homes, however, are designed with pre-engineered materials resistant to moisture and humidity. Their advanced construction methodology ensures a stronger, more reliable structure-one that stands firm for decades, even through high winds and heavy monsoons.
3- Speeds Up Construction
Everyone knows how time-consuming traditional homebuilding can be. On-site construction often halts due to weather changes, causing delays and cost escalations.
Prefab homes solve this problem. Their components are built off-site in a controlled factory environment and later assembled on-site. This process eliminates weather interruptions and enables faster delivery—often within weeks, compared to the long timelines of conventional methods.
Contributes to Environmental Sustainability
Prefab construction uses pre-engineered materials and precise production techniques, resulting in significantly less waste than traditional on-site construction. This reduces material usage, minimizes emissions, and lowers the overall environmental footprint. The process also produces minimal air pollution, supporting sustainable living.
In short, prefab homes by Modvista are the ideal response to Ahmedabad’s evolving climate and a reliable solution for a resilient, future-ready lifestyle.
Prefab homes are gaining popularity for their numerous advantages, and many homeowners are now choosing Modvista Prefab Homes. With weekend homes in Telav, Chekhla, and Khoraj, and commercial projects in Thaltej, Modvista continues to deliver satisfaction across Ahmedabad. Landowners in Shilaj, Rancharda, Sanand, Viramgam, Thol, and nearby regions can also make the most of their land with luxurious prefab weekend homes by Modvista.
