Check out these awesome little prefab homes by a Chinese manufacturer, the "Vessel" prefab.

They're being used as mini hotel suites as well as housing units.

Impressive.




Easily mounted on stilts for uneven terrain. Starting at about $95,000


Here's their website;

That's quite a bit smaller, though, than a double wide mobile home.
They do look cool, though.

Your bedroom is basically a terrarium, and you're the exhibit.

Architects sure seem to love them, though. Haven't seen any real people sold on the idea.
