Aluminium may still be a good option for the structure, while composite materials (not just fiberglass) are more suitable for the enclosures because of the enhanced thermal comfort. At least one Brazilian company developed a project to make prefab home assemblies out of fiberglass about 10 or 15 years ago, but it didn't succeed.
