House in Boxes
(+11 rating, 7 votes)
Loading ...The homeless in Japan builds ingenious houses that quickly fold away and can be easily rebuilt after police raids.
Architect Kyohei Sakaguchi has been studying and documenting them, and published “0 Yen Houses” in 2004. Check it out if you are interested.
I don’t know if they got an idea from homeless people, but Japanese home building company Sago Mokuzai designed a house that comes in two boxes (41 Kg each). The house is currently being designed for emergency use, and durable for about 6 month. (source:JeanSnow)

Why do people feel the need to state that something is Photoshopped? Can’t we just have a laugh?
I bet Drew’s a great guy to be around, constantly pointing out everyone’s faults. Do you heckle comedians and tell the audience that all of the jokes are in fact ‘made up’?
You indeed ARE a cock.

Why do people feel the need to complain when when someone makes a Photoshopped shout?
Can’t we just have a laugh?

you people should be madder that “it looks photoshopped” and “i can tell because of some of the pixels” are really old jokes. They’re the web equivalent of “thats what she said”.
Cut it out folks.

You guys are a bunch of idiots! Why the f*** would you claim this to be photoshopped??? It’s not like there’s a science to building a stupid shelter out of stupid cardboard boxes and duct tape! Give us all a break and think about things before you start claiming PHOTOSHOPPED!!!
