Used to working with limitations and blurring these boundaries at the same time, dmvA responded by designing a mobile unit, a blob. As a mobile construction and holding a high dose of art, it skirted round the strict building codes.
AD&S, as a builder, worked 18 months on this project, resulting in this smooth looking egg. This space-egg houses all necessary items one could possibly need; bathroom, kitchen, lighting, a bed and several niches to store your stuff. The nose can be opened automatically and functions as a kind of porch. This mobile unit can be used as an office, a guestroom, a reception, a garden-house, or whatever you want to. The material used is polyester, sizes are like a big caravan and it can be moved to any place one likes. Contact dmvA Architecten
