Habitat. Micro Compact Homes
Habitat. Micro Compact Homes: Maximizing space is an artform. It's one thing to be small, but to be small functional and beautiful is awesome. That's our feeling about the Micro Compact Home. It's your full service trailer colliding at 1000 mph with modernism.
As reported on Gizmodo: "You think your house is small? Get a load of this 8.5-foot cube, the Micro Compact Home (m-ch). Even though its interior is a bit cramped, its architects tried to overcome that claustrophobic feeling with luxo-sport Euro design and plenty of windows. It's a lot cheaper than a regular house, too, selling for between $32,500 and $44,225. Sure, the designers believe in that "less is more" principle, but it's hard to imagine spending much time in this little aluminum-clad wooden doghouse. There are two tiny double beds in there, along with a table that can supposedly seat five, a shower, toilet and a kitchen, plus it's heated and air-conditioned. Is this how we'll be living after the apocalypse?"
