ISO50 is back online after the server apparently took a much needed 24 hour nap, hope you didn’t miss us too much…

Anyways, before the outage I had planned on posting this amazing prefab home from architects Horden Cherry Lee. The “Micro Compact Home” is a joint Japanese/German project and it shows. You really can’t go wrong with that combination and you also can’t go wrong when your new home is delivered into the mountains by some Swiss helicopter. Awesome. Loving that antenna too, or is it a flag pole? Either way it makes the whole thing about 100 times better.

Wow! That would be a lovely place to live!

Always inspired by the architecture stuff you post here…

Oh yeah, sent you an email recently did you get it?

Thanks!

Yes! It’s the traveling Moodgadget Pod! I always pictured it flying under it’s own power though, not being airlifted by a chopper. (Although that is pretty awesome too..)

I know a student in Munich who actually lived in this micro compact home and I tell you this is really small, you can’t do anything else than eating, sleeping and working at a small desk, walking around is no option here.
