Now I’ve seen many a concept mini house but this one caught my eye over at Ryan’s blog. Maybe it was the bright orange but this seems like an IKEA-ready piece. What a great way to convert a space without having to install anything.

I’m thinking in particular of our garage out back, where Michael and I would like to have a place to live (for ourselves or guests), but also keep the space usable as a garage and workspace. This convertible unit containing a full bath, kitchen, bed and storage has certainly got my attention. I like the plug & play qualities of it.

Designed by Andrew Kline, currently living in Brooklyn, who realizes that the 8 foot cube idea has been done before but I think he takes it to the next level. Of course I’m a sucker for the practical stuff.

The prototype of this Interior Living Unit is in Detroit and available for 20K, not including transport and installation. Via Dezeen.
