Especially in modern times, architects often elaborated on the issue of industrial, that is, the affordable and quick production of houses. This catalogue includes the most interesting contributions to this concept. Apart from the solutions offered by architects, there is a wide range of standard or prefabricated houses made by the construction industry.

The third focus of this catalogue consists of designs by famous architects developed under the premise of standardization.
