OPOD HOUSE
Overpopulation, tight spaces within cities or the inability to build as decades ago, have also made the industry decide to innovate in new construction models.
What you are seeing here is nothing more than a small urban housing made with a concrete pipe and designed as a home for young people who can not afford the high costs of current housing.
They measure a little less than two and a half meters in diameter. They can accommodate one or two people and are about 90 square meters habitable. They are equipped with a living room with a sofa bed, a small refrigerator, bathroom, shower and closet. Of course this is not only for young people without a penny, they are also intended for governments who want to exercise control over the building territory.
And you’ve probably walked down the street and you’ve noticed that there are small spaces between buildings where you think: “Wow, here you could make more houses but this space is too narrow and elongated”, well, look, here I bring you a solution to those small spaces that can be used. Well, here I bring you a solution to those small spaces that can be used.
About its price, it is around 12,200β¬ per tube, quite economical.
Resort Modules for Satoshi Island
These building modules on the famous Satoshi Island in Vanuatu, are designed for investors or visitors who want to have an island experience. Each of these modules would be close to the sea with views, arranged with private garden and a swimming pool. Made of aluminum, they are sturdy and bright and easy to transport.
But, in addition to the construction designs, we have to talk about the interiors.
The houses will be built on 3 main axes:
Technology
Sustainability
Population
This type of holistic approach gives rise to ideas such as self-cultivation, recycling or what goes further, suprarecycling, which is the use of products, waste materials or residues to manufacture new materials or products of higher quality, greater ecological value and greater economic value. Supra-recycling is one of the practices of the Circular Economy. Its main difference with other processes such as recycling is that the end result is of higher quality and ecological value, and it does not attempt to continue with linear models such as the production of single-use objects or the degradation or decomposition of materials.
In this way, the useful life of the waste/product is extended, new items can be created and the consumption of virgin raw materials is reduced. The ideal of this concept is to give a second chance to objects destined for the trash in a different way, aiming at a better result than the original.
And that is how it is, the trend is towards smaller houses, which we may or may not agree with, but a little “patronage culture” it seems.
Just look at where some Chinese live:
