CBC News highlights Arctic Modular Homes’ latest project delivering nine modular homes to Cambridge Bay, with completion expected by November. The fully prefabricated units, designed and built in Manitoba, aim to expand public housing while overcoming the unique logistical challenges of building in the Arctic.

Nunatsiaq News reports on Arctic Modular Homes’ largest project to date — the delivery of 22 prefabricated pods to build nine new homes for the Nunavut Housing Corp. Built in Winkler, Manitoba and shipped north fully finished, the “plug-and-play” units offer an efficient, energy-saving solution to the challenges of Arctic construction.

In 2022 CHOU was shortlisted through CMHC’s Housing Supply Challenge Northern round and will be seeking funding to build a factory in Winkler Manitoba dedicated to the design and construction of modular homes for northern and remote locations within Canada. This factory will allow AMH to build homes in a climate controlled environment 12 months of the year, dispatching them during sealift season all over Nunavut and other northern and remote location.

Nunavut News highlights the evolution of CHOU Consulting and Development, a Cambridge Bay-based modular housing company founded by Amanda Doiron and Stuart Rostant. Drawing on 12 years of experience living in the Arctic, the pair are pioneering efficient, Northern-ready housing solutions to address Nunavut’s ongoing housing crisis.
