Living Minimalist Architecture - Schemata Architecture has designed a conceptual model home that is a 3×3x3 cube called Paco.
Now I know that I live in a society of consumers and that we have so much, but, I could never live in this little, white box.
The two redeeming features of Paco are that the roof opens up (thank God) and the cube can be installed anywhere that has hookup for water and waste removal. I think the perfect use for Paco would be a great little changing room on the beach – it looks ideal there.
