    Gimme a T.V., a 360 and a laptop and I’ll hotbox the shit out of that.

    I think its not comfortable space for sleep. But external shape is cool:)

    I think sleeping on a shelf would feel awfully depressing, not to mention claustrophobic.

    They make it look too sterile, but with old books on the shelves, plants, odds and sods, lamps and something in a jar. It would look great. Some nice rugs and cushions and a small table table for two.
    That huge opening at the end is brilliant. I could live in this. And not sleep on the bloody shelf either.

  • Billie

    @Bill Mead No way, I would TOTALLY like sleeping on a shelf like that!

  • Becca Jeane

    Looks like a fun place to camp out in!

    Awesome house

  • Sarah

    Well considering it’s only meant to be a temporary dwelling and it seems to only be meant to have one person living in it at a time, I assume you wouldn’t mind a glass bathroom door since you are the only one there.
    Also the sleeping shelf looks quite comfortable.

    Totally agree with the hotboxing.

  • Eric

    u take a shit in that bathroom and ull have to vacate the whole house…

    I think it’s a cool concept that needs to be expanded upon. It’s got the aesthetic down, but they need to work on the function a bit more. I’m sure with a bit more though it could be developed into something more ergonomic.
