架构师提供的文本描述。插件大厦减少了建造房屋所需的投资，因为它排除了失去房产的风险：如果居民被迫搬迁，他们可以打包房屋并随身携带。该插件塔被列为临时结构，不需要地下基础，从而规避了对永久性建筑的严格规划批准，并放宽了建造私人住宅的要求。

Text description provided by the architects. The Plugin Tower curtails the investment necessary for building a home since it excludes the risk of losing one’s property: residents can pack up their homes and bring it with them if they are ever forced to relocate. Classified as a temporary structure, the Plugin Tower does not require an underground foundation, thereby circumventing the strict planning approval for permanent structures and easing the requirements for building a private house.

一个多层预制构件系统，是无限可扩展的，代谢灵感插件塔是由一个钢的空间框架，一个组件的套件，可以在无穷无尽的变化。框架内的空位用活的单元插上，必要时修改和拔出。单位是与包的专有插件面板系统，模块，包括绝缘，布线，管道，内部和外部完成在一个模制部分。面板是与集成锁，容易安装的一对非技术人员，只有一个六角扳手。与集装箱不同的是，插件面板允许在没有重型机械的情况下增加生活空间，并且不限制它们的布局为盒子的形状。

A multi-story prefab system that is infinitely expandable, the Metabolist-inspired Plugin Tower is comprised of a steel space frame, a kit of parts that can be assembled in endless variations. Empty bays within the frame are plugged with living units, altered and unplugged when necessary. Units are made with PAO’s proprietary Plugin Panel system, modules that incorporate insulation, wiring, plumbing, interior and exterior finishes into one molded part. Panels are attached with integrated locks, easily installed by a couple of unskilled people with just a hex wrench. Unlike with shipping containers, Plugin Panels allow living spaces to be added without heavy machinery, and does not restrict their layouts to the shape of a box.

人民建筑办公室提出的“住宅未来”是一种适应变化需求和波动条件的灵活设计，反映了我国住房状况的不稳定性。

Suggesting the instability of the state of housing in China, the ‘future of housing’ proposed by People’s Architecture Office is a flexible design that adapts to changing needs and fluctuating conditions.
