The micro-compact home, pioneered by Horden Cherry Lee Architects, is debuting in the UK next month.

International attention in the design was sparked by the O2 Germany sponsored student village of micro-compact homes in Munich, Germany. The prototype dwelling will be showcased at the Grand Designs Live exhibition at ExCel in Docklands, June 2-4, before moving to Berkley Square in central London, June 6-10.
The micro-compact home is designed for short-stay smart living and is suitable for a variety of locations. The slick aluminium pod integrates sound, flat-screen, communication and energy systems and requires no furniture.

the o2 is the beginning of something big here in western australia...and hopefully in all the urban centres where construction is not only time consuming by extremely inefficient...
