Beyond the Black Stump:
Fall 2020 | Microhome Housing Competition
Collaborators: Christine Eichhorn
In 2020, we’ve had to rethink our notion of home, a space where we sleep, work, eat and socialize. With millions of people working remotely due to the coronavirus pandemic, the microhome serves as both office and sleeping quarters. Our proposal seeks spatial flexibility through a minimal and off-grid design that fosters adventure. Made from pre-fabricated CNC plywood, the home can pivot and unfold through a series of crafted hinges to create various living configurations. The house can be relocated, allowing its inhabitants to work, sleep and travel in the comfort of their own home.
