Futuro Prefab

Futuro Prefab by Matti Suuronen

Today I am going to talk about this mobile spaceship house. What attract attention to me is especially the fact that, despite its modern look, it was designed in 1968. Matti Suuronen selected a round airship design, as it would be strong as well as spacious. The walls of the house are constructed using polyester plastic. Being lightweight, this house may easily be transported elsewhere and also remains well-insulated.

As things stand today, with the global economic crisis, low wages and unemployment, I see this type of construction as a solution asquible housing for young and not so young people who can not afford paying a mortgage, or simply for those adventurous who like to travel the world without a fixed address.

In the following link  and also here, you have more details, I hope you like it.
