This Folding “House” Fits In Your Pocket

Think your apartment is small? Well, you’ll have a newfound appreciation for your living space once you see this tiny self-inflating home. And when we say tiny, we really mean tiny, because believe it or not, this house will actually fold up and fit into your pocket!

It’s called The Basic House, and it’s designed by Martin Azua, A Basque designer based in Barcelona. It’s made from a clever material that traps heat during colder temperatures while keeping the interior cool during hotter weather, and all you have to do to construct it is to shake it until it fills with air. As Martin writes on his website, the basic cube is “ideal for a life on the move without material ties. Having everything without having almost anything. Basic Home is not a product, rather a concept of extreme reduction.”
