treading lightly on the landscape, the building cantilevers out 27 meters to a point 18 meters above the terrain below.
franck bohbot traveled to richard neutra's VDL research house II and documented it, capturing two generations of architectural experimentation.

the micro-hotel room is enclosed by a tiny topography of stepping terraces.
the architects say that the building, and the activity that takes place within it, is meant to transform the way in which buildings are designed, engineered, and built.

more commentsI think it’s awesome! For all the haters out there with your negative comments…….didn’t your parents teach you that “If you don’t have anything nice to say, it’s best to say nothing at all” ……Really, if you don’t like something just keep it moving. Why waste the short time you have in this life hating.
What!!?? $86,000 for essentially an egg-shaped shed with solar panels and wind turbine!!!!!!!!! What!!!! Sure, its nice with the sink and hot plate, little bed, hahaha!! Sorry but you people have lost your minds completely! Great idea but this is not going to happen for $86,000. Get it down to $20k USD then you’ll sell thousands opposed to selling very few at $86k.
It is just a wonderful piece of design and technology. Not over-engineered nor over-designed. To all cristics : no worries, if you don’t like it than step aside, but just dare to admit it’s well done!
Very Cool!…[email protected] 86,000 bucks it’s not cost effective considering it only lasts a projective year before needed maintenance is required…seems like only those who are independently wealthy would even remotely consider paying that much and would have to be a minimalist to boot!
I LOVE This! I think it’s a sad commentary that so many previous commentors choose to be quite negative. I have been following the Ecocapsule since 2015. Of course any bugs will be gone after all this time. It is not “overdesigned”, who is this hyper critical person? It is beautifully designed for all the necessities to fit into a lovely super small footprint. Brilliant! Thank You !
