Kwangu Kwako One Bedroom Apartment

Kwangu Kwako: AFFORDABLE HOUSING One Bedroom Apartment MODULAR CONSTRUCTION

The Kwangu Kwako One Bedroom Apartment provides a separate bedroom, living area, bathroom, and kitchen within the same precast concrete panel construction system. It targets young families, first-time buyers, and developers building rental stock where tenants need a distinct sleeping space separated from the living area. The additional internal partition walls use the same 50mm panels, meaning the space-saving benefit compounds: every internal wall gains usable floor area compared to a 200mm block wall, and the smooth factory finish eliminates the need for thick plaster coats on both sides.

Key Features:

• One bedroom apartment with separate bedroom, living room, kitchen, and bathroom, delivered turnkey
• All walls (external and internal partitions) built from 50mm reinforced precast concrete panels
• Factory-made panels, laboratory-tested, smooth finish for direct painting
• NCA registered construction system
• Suitable for individual homes, multi-unit rental developments, institutional staff housing, and affordable housing schemes

Sustainability Features:

• Precast concrete panels at 907 MJ/m2 embodied energy: 47% lower than common brick, 60% lower than machine-cut stone

• Multiple internal partition walls amplify the material savings: each 50mm partition saves approximately 150mm of wall thickness versus conventional block, adding up across the full floor plan
