The modulOne from PassivDom is quite an interesting house. Or, to be more accurate with the company’s description, “autonomous 3D-printed mobile house”. The Ukrainian company behind the house says it is “mobile and transportable house with Passive House parameters”. It is claimed that the thermal characteristics are high enough for the house to use 20 times less energy than an ordinary building. Of course, this comes in rather handy as autonomous function and off-grid living are the major selling points of this house.
modulOne‘s frame is made from 3D-printed carbon fiber and fiberglass and is entirely recyclable. Solar panels on the house generate enough juice to power a climate control system, an air quality control system with carbon dioxide control, and a clean water system that draws moisture from the air.
The fully autonomous house offers an area of 36 square meters and is priced at €59,900 (~$63,800). If you’re going off the grid to prepare for the doomsday and/or Zombie Apocalypse, there is a special package on offer. The Zombie Apocalypse package includes armored glazing, an alarm system, extra toilet paper storage and a bible. Of course, this could just end up staying as a design/concept, but it is pretty interesting.
