You can take it with you: Ten Fold Engineering presented the concept of a folding house
The British company Ten Fold Engineering has unveiled the concept of a self-disintegrating home. From a building that is equal in area to the size of a truck, a full-fledged structure arises
When unfolded, everything looks like a full-fledged house with a veranda, main and additional rooms. Inside there will be a living room with a kitchen, a bedroom, a sanitary unit. After the transformation, all these rooms take their place in the house.
The structure is based on flexible and durable steel rods. When the mobile home owner needs the building to be assembled, all protruding parts are "hidden".
Panoramic windows are used to increase the penetration of natural light and save energy. Also on one of the side surfaces of the house-transformer will be solar panels.
Portable pipes and adapters are used to divert communications. Depending on the location, containers for collecting sewage are mounted.
On the company's website, it was indicated that the drawings for the project are oriented to European standards. As for developments for the US market, we need to wait a bit. At the same time, the authors of the transforming house are turning to architects and designers who could help modify some processes.
The concept of a mobile home has the potential to change the infrastructure of poor areas in Africa in many ways. Such mobile structures can become hospitals, educational institutions, temporary shelters for the homeless.
You can learn about innovations from the world of design from specialized magazines that appear on the OXO website.
