Hi , thanks for this wonderful ideas, I live in Argentina, and yet we are ages far from something of the sort.
In this country, and as Andrew says, people love to go on their Mh, and go free on holidays, wherever they want, and stay for a while, sometimes a month. Then come back home. If this was in a hotel, it would be very very hard to afford it.

I would love to see something of the design on a real scale and working, please let me know about that when it happens, and congratulations on the new concepts.

By the way, at least in southamerica, families that use MH are or 4 or even more sometimes they use ald trucks, or pickups.

I would love to see something for my H1-(long one 12 pass) is there something around for it?) thanks a lot, congrats again.

So I want to applaud your efforts at combining the automotive world and architecture. I myself am doing the same with a Mobile Design+Build Unit.

I’m a little disappointed in the lack of detail shown though as far as connections, real thicknesses of walls and floors, and especially the lack of structural thought as well as hydraulic, pneumatic device controls. As a graduate architecture student, I understand time restraints and length of projects which are unknown here, but to appreciate this at all I need to see some sense of an ability to put this together, towing capacity, etc. A slide out of those dimensions, that distance is impossible given what you are doing and current technology and the ribbon windows wrapping around would not be done. The concept is commendable though and this is only constructive criticism of a fellow design professional.

Keep pushing the limits, but a better grasp of the parameters that we work in is needed in order to further them.

[...] Andrew Dutton created this compact home design to work equally well as a house and a car, together or separately. Aside from the obvious environmental and material benefits of such an idea, this design would enable normally more permanent residents to move cities in our ever-more-mobile society. [...]

Hi joe, Winnebago were approached for the project to participate in the vehicles creation but refused as their design department had to many other commitments which was a shame.
