Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012045008A2] Buildings are described that incorporate at least a folding building module and a complementary building module that also can be a folding building module. The building modules can be shipped to the building site separately and can be unfolded and connected quickly. The described foldable houses and buildings exhibit more design flexibility, are formed from easily transported building modules, and/or allow folded building modules that are substantially in finished condition. Additionally, methods for forming the buildings and houses are described.
