Over the weekend I’ll be posting several design iterations to my entry to the Who’s Next design competition hosted by Free Green. My design is essentially a cluster of tiny houses.

Who’s Next Competition

Polymecca is a wonderful example of a well crafted house truck. The house itself measures 14′ long, 8′ wide, and 7.5′ tall. It has a steel frame for strength and lots of woodwork.

Polymecca

This tiny house is located on Powell Lake in coastal British Columbia. It’s just 400 square feet (20′x20′) and sits on a floating platform made up of giant logs.

This is a prototype of a flat pack cabin being built for deployment to Haiti. The plan is to setup a factory near Port-au-Prince and donate 1,000 of these homes to Haiti.

James and Kristen have made the move to Austin, TX and are now on the edge of a very nice little trailer park facing some woods. This is a photo of their home office. You can also follow them on Facebook.

Cove Park

Very nice little backyard home office built by Ecospace available in the UK. It features a nice modern design, ample insulation, double glazed glass windows, and fairly quick setup.

Ecospace Workpod

CleverHomes is producing a small 480 square foot prefab home designed to serve as a low maintenance cabin or guest house.
