ᐅ Prefabricated concrete house with a pitched roof appearance

Good evening,
we are planning to build a low-budget single-family house made of concrete and are now looking, ideally, for a prefab house company that offers something close to what we have in mind. I’m attaching a few photos of houses to illustrate the style we are aiming for. Essentially, a house made almost entirely from insulated concrete (preferably including the roof) with wooden frame windows (possibly also other wooden elements inside). We want to do as much of the interior work ourselves as possible. The house can be up to 16m long and 8m wide (52 feet 6 inches by 26 feet 3 inches), one or two stories, but with at least 5 rooms plus kitchen and bathroom. Neither a basement nor a garage is needed. The floor plan should be simple, with a straight staircase if two stories, using prefabricated components and basic building materials like wood, concrete, and metal. We want to deliberately reduce expensive technology, opting for simple windows and doors (but with good insulation values). Clear shapes and a focus on essentials without compromising too much on quality.
So far, I haven’t found prefab houses with the desired gable roof style. Does anyone happen to have a recommendation? It currently looks like we might have to take the more costly route via an architect.
Thanks in advance.
P.S. We do not want too many large window fronts.

I once saw a TV report where an architect built using insulating concrete. He sourced the concrete with an approval from Switzerland. The wall thickness was 50cm (20 inches), if I remember correctly.
You might want to contact the company Fuchs in Berching. They offer precast concrete construction. Possibly with a double-shell system including core insulation. However, I doubt this would be very cost-effective.

Thank you very much, I have made an inquiry. These are exactly the kind of tips I was hoping to get here.

Interesting, thanks for the inspiration. I would love to hear and see more about your house. Who are you building with?
Yes, we are also gradually finding our way. At first, I was immediately captivated by these example pictures, but now a more realistic approach needs to be found. 😉
