I was perusing through a design blog and found the Blob VB3, an awesome egg shaped micro living space. It has a bathroom, kitchen (although I can't seem to find it in any of the pictures), a bed, lighting, and tons of storage cubbies. It looks cool.
I participated in an undergrad brainstorming session last week, and one of the topics was microhouses. The project was to build a single person house that could fit on a trailer, and we thought of tons of ways to save space (folding tables, beds, etc.) while still living comfortably. Although the Blob might not account for all of the problems (waste removal, heating/cooling, etc.) we discussed, it still looks like it's a step in the right direction.
Some might say that the exterior is an eyesore, that they couldn't put this in their backyard. I think it has an organic modern shape to it that would look good in any backyard. The Blob VB3 is not going to revolutionize the way people live, but it could open some eyes to the possibilities of microliving and give designers inspiration for the next wave of tiny houses.
