Future of housing

Truth in love

So this is way to small for my family, but looking over the concepts and tech I think it has a lot going for it. The reality of prefab has never really deviled the quality.


Thoughts?

Would you want one?

I saw an article that I hadn't read yet, about elon musk making these pre-fab tiny homes, and the picture of it looked cool anyway. I don't know what you want to debate, but the subjects that concern me are rising costs and property rights / allocation. Housing prices have obviously skyrocketed over the past 50 years, but housing has become more and more pre-fab. So in other words, pre-fab technology didn't make anything cheaper, and that is extremely conspicuous.

I think that what go more scarce, was viable property. And that's why prices skyrocketed. Though it's a lot more complicated than that, regulation plays a part as well.

That's really cool. :cool: I like all the windows. It is big enough for me but not big enough for me and the 8 cats.
Have you ever seen the floating houses over in Europe? I forgot which country they were built in.

Italy has the one city and I saw some house boats watching the highlander serious way back when. That’s about it.

Those are student homes in Copenhagen :D

These are also built from containers in the same area as the others.

Yes, the first one! It would be heaven on earth to be able to float around in my house, as long as there was room for the cats. :D

I like thinking outside the box
about alternative housing.
Let me guess, you are thinking this ain't you? :D

These are supposed to be about 10k. I’m not sure what direction all of this will go, but more affordable housing would be a very good thing.
