What Is Ark House?

Next-Generation Portable Buildings

Ark House simplifies the construction process by providing innovative flatpack and expandable modules. Engineered for efficient transport and rapid on-site assembly, our modules can be used as standalone structures or seamlessly combined to create complete homes, offices, cabins, and large-scale accommodation buildings.

WHY CONTAINER HOMES

Engineering you can stand behind.

01 Strength Beyond Measure

THE CHDD DIFFERENCE

Built Wider. Built Smarter. Built for Better Living.

We build wider than standard modular homes with integrated roof and box gutter systems. The result is more usable internal space, better weather performance and the ability to harvest rainwater into storage tanks — without joining modules on site.
