Basic House

Posted on July 27, 2005 Under Design

I’m totally intrigued by Spanish designer Martin Azua’s ‘Basic House’. The house is made of metal-coated polyester, and can be squeezed down to pocket size, and of course is thrown in the air, and expands large enough to serve as a small shelter. The inside of the house reflects the body heat, while the outside attracts solar heat. It can also be turned inside out to repel heat– no word on how that actually works, though.
