Normally I dislike auto-playing audio on landing pages but this site creates a mood that's memorable.
Apparently they're being sold in August this year in Japan for ¥3,000,000 (~$43,000). There's also a YC company, Boxouse, from the last batch that's building something similar in the U.S.
@rrhoover Muji looks like what Boxouse should have been... great site, well designed space, great visuals.. Boxous looks like they built their site with their iPhone.
@rrhoover I think it works here because there's no apparent alternative to do anything else besides watch what's being presented (aside from the absolute sereneness)
@steventhanna@rrhoover its £21265.51 or £27225.2100 - wow enough to buy a house in parts of Wales. Its beautiful but I wish these things come in at no more than the £2000 mark and is sustainable and eco friendly (putting together extra)
I really like the design of this hut. As an idea its really similar to those huts build from shipping containers (we call them: "konttikoti" in Finnish). Really cool product! 👌
This is a redesign of an older product. There's also the 9 tsubo house from Boo Hoo Woo if you need just a little more space http://www.100khouse.com/2010/01...
@ispekhov did what? designed a small house? nothing is about who is first. Uber wasn't first - Sidecar was, we saw how that played out. first = means nothing
Projects such as these and Boxouse give me hope that there is a solution to the housing crisis but I am concerned over regulatory pushback at the local level. Where will they build and will the demand end up negating the promised benefits of such housing?
love the design here. I've seen a lot of companies working on this. there was also one at LAUNCH conference. will be interesting to see how the competitive landscape plays out
Love MUJI, love this: it's true to their mission and a really neat expansion into housing. Nice immersive site. Would love to see more of this especially with housing affordability (or lack thereof) in Australia.
