Hardly any of us dreamed favorite, cozy home can not move, not to divide with the convenience and comfort, which we are accustomed and which we have created in their own taste. Danish design studio N55, seemed to find a solution for this. It submitted a draft of the house walking (Walking House), which is moved by six mechanical legs, not dependent on whether there are roads built, they will be able to go through different terrains. The main module of the house will be 2.3 meters in height, width 2.4 meters and a length of 8 meters, and weighs 1 tonne. According to the designers of this area will be able to live up to 4 people, such as by connecting multiple units can be made larger and walking home. The maximum speed that the house will be able to develop is 5 miles per hour – according to the authors of the project the average speed with which one moves is appropriate because it is proved that it also achieves good concentrations of thinking. Each leg will operate as an autonomous unit, will have its own engines and batteries. In movement three of them will always be standing on the ground to provide the necessary stability.
The house will enable nomadic life, moving slowly with minimal environmental impact, according to N55. It will gather energy through solar panels and small wind turbines and will have a system for collecting rainwater. The house can be added a small greenhouse in which to grow a significant part of the food needed for the residents of the house. Among other things, the house is amphibious and can move on water, promising designers. Currently there are no ready walking house, but plans are soon to be built prototype.

Glass Open House in Gent

I noticed this house a long time ago on the site The Style Files, but decided later to find more info and do not publish anything. Now it turns out that it is removed from the site and that nobody else has written anything about it. No information anywhere. Only able to got to the pictures and not in large size. The house is located in the Belgian city of Ghent. Occupies one room of each of the four floors of the building. So I wonder whether it is more properly be called a flat or maisonette. Interesting decision is up to the windows and lights – not on each floor. If you were three would be as light. But I think this is most strange to her. Even more strange is that all is open to the street. Jump for exhibitionist. The walls are windows and no blinds or curtains or anything. Neighbors and passersby can easily see what is going on inside. Even in the bedroom. Most likely, only the bathroom is hidden from prying eyes. Otherwise the interior is refined and comfortable. And if I were neighbors and passers-by would be a pleasure to live in the house. Parquet and only painted white walls are exactly my taste. The ceiling is a little strange so left in the transverse reba, but not bad. Table in the kitchen is wooden and well combined with the stools. In the living room I noticed the yellow lamp and projector ceiling. Bed in the bedroom is quite comfortable and looks great, but what we do with our neighbors? The house is ideal for exhibitionist and if the windows are blacked out – and for everyone else. But apparently the owners as they like.
