Wikkelhouse: pick your modular segments & click them together

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ก.ย. 2024
- After a couple decades creating theater sets in Amsterdam, Oep Schilling and his company of makers Fiction Factory, put their CNC expertise and resources into building a prefab tiny house, using cardboard as the main structural element. Relying on a proprietary machine that can wrap corrugated sheets around a mold, they could create high strength cardboard that serves as both support and insulation.
The “Wikkelhouse”, or “wrap house”, is a truly customizable home composed of 5-meter-square (53-square-foot) modules that click together to create any-sized structure. The 1.2-metre-deep segments (3.9 feet) are first built up from 24 layers of cardboard moulded around a house-shaped frame. Once “printed”, the basic units can be customized: cut with one or two spherical windows, kitted out as a bathroom, a kitchen or even a narrow bunk room or two or three can be combined to create larger rooms.
Schilling says 20% of the orders have been for 8 segment shelters (often for nature cabins), though they have sold a lot of 4, 5 and 6 unit structures as well. “I hope to sell a three because I like it really tiny,” he explains. “Three could work, but it's a bit like a hotel room, but of course you have the sky, you have a garden. I've lived in smaller spaces, compared to a caravan this is like a villa."

My father had a small cardboard packaging business that I worked at every summer. I can literally smell this video.
Is that good or bad? I love how new books smell, so I imagine it would smell similar. Am I right?
@@andrewvernon4664 Yes, a lot like the new book smell. Since my parents are both gone, the smell is good and nostalgic.
@@brinselyseven5530 Scent is a very powerful memory stimulant. My condolences regarding your parents. That's a difficult loss that I myself dread to face. Hopefully it'll be in the very distant future. But no matter when, I know it'll feel too soon.
@@andrewvernon4664 Thank you! I absolutely hope it is a long, long time before you have to endure that. My parents had me late in life, so it was something I knew would happen long before I was ready. I was lucky enough to be an adult when it happened. Still, you'd be amazed at all the questions that go unanswered when they are not around. I wish you and your parents a long and beautiful life : )
@@brinselyseven5530 Thanks. I hope so, too. My mom was 32 and my dad was 33 when I was born. I think having somewhat older parents was beneficial in a lot of ways, but with one obvious drawback. So I plan make the most out of the time we have together. I feel like life moves too fast. Sometimes I wish it were like a computer game where I could adjust the speed to slow.
Kirsten has a nice way of interviewing and filming at the same time. She never interrupts the person lets them speak! Love the cool tiny house ideas 👍

Not for nothing...the banter between you two is hilarious!
This is classic comedy routine at its finest! Am in stitches, laughing like c.r.a.z.y...you should team up😂😹
I've loved corrugated cardboard as construction material for ages. It's strength is quite remarkable. That, combined with the ease of use, (all you need is, a blade, tape & glue) makes it incredibly versatile.
When i was studying design in 1980, we got a chair project to research a style, design a chair in that style, then build the scale model. I did a large, traditional rocking chair, in cardboard. Which i built full size. It lived in a corner of the classroom & was used regularly. It survived till the end of the year & was in quite good shape.
The thing that makes these houses special isn't the cardboard, it's that the floor, wall, and ceiling all blend into each other. Such a unique design. The modularity is cool too.
I like how this is modular and customizable. I also appreciate that he has not ignored basic needs such as toilets and electricity, but has figured out ways to incorporate them into the house and still keep it modular. Thanks!
I love this guys attitude. "You can make a coffe. And here's the toilet."
Very nice garden house. Good to see that they try to use as many natural materials as possible.
It's a challenge, and they are doing well !
I think it's the shape and simplicity in design that I have fallen in love with. 💖👍😁
This infatuation will not end well.
the shape and simplicity look good, too bad the building material is not durable and cost just as much per square foot are traditional site build homes, ($80K for a super small house). But unlike traditional site build homes this one has to be strapped down or high wind will blow it away.
You people are so critical this is just another great housing option that people create to make our lives more comfortable and affordable.
Vaguely reminds me of mid-century laminated furniture that was steam-bent into shapes and was very sturdy. Don't see why this couldn't work for "tiny homes" but I can see it being very difficult to get past local planning councils. Thank you for showing this project, very interesting!
definitely a weird design and not for everyone's eyes, but it's really not that bad. I would rock it.. I like the fact they can be connected as many as you have and can fit in your space.
But the cardboard hat is what just got that like button smashed xD . Modern-day middle-aged Japanese men wear this style of hat all the time, I like the style. But the fact it's made out of cardboard is not the cat's meow, but the Lion's Roar - well done . smashing that like right now
Not enough people talk about zoning and permits and the local board. I'm navigating that process right now and it's a fucking nightmare. And this is for a MOBILE HOME. I can't imagine less well known or tested buildings
Ha ha - it's not often you'll hear that - 2:27 - "You can see it's not a scam - it's _real_ _cardboard_ !"
24 layers! (It's like 24k Gold but it's cardboard)
Never seen someone so proud of cardboard
😂
😂😂😂 I was thinking the same thing. Did O hear this right? Lol.
Bet it does real good if it gets wet.
I just find the filming lady, so lovable! She is just so innicent and respectful.
This is very interesting. And I could see how it is very strong. People are always thinking up new was to provide for housing needs. The biggest problem is old thinking. Things are change technology is changing the zoning and ideas of what we can use to make homes need to change with them. Thanks Kirsten this another innovative video.

What I find intriguing: the modular concept of building in section/elements and simply having configurable modules to build to your desire.
What I find infuriating: cardboard as a core in a plywood home with no ideas of R-value, U-factor, material longevity, load rating (because someone will put panels on it or put it where snow falls), wind load, and cost ($10k € per module with nothing more than a plywood finish and cardboard core.
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the concept, but as an engineer, I also have to consider the practicality and long term viability of said project using said materials.
Company called Cube do interesting modular housing ,they are English company
totally agree with you. maybe with this modularity but made with a light weight concrete outer shell. I don't see how you can avoid termites and mice/rats getting into the walls.
Obviously not much of an Engineer
@@Akira-nw4jl maybe it's because your an Idiot?
@@tonyofarrell2775 you're* THE idiot
This is so cool ! Hats off to Fiction Factory ! Here in BC, we have so much beetle kill timber, this would put so much of it to use, as cardboard doesn't require A-1 structural wood fibre. Even the inside layer could be made from one preformed OSB panel. Forest fires took thousands of hectares of forest this year, literally, thousands of future homes going up in smoke. Hope to see you go global some day.
And think of the cardboard being generated by all the online purchasing people do now. That can be recycled into furnishings and homes as well as new packaging.
Forest fires are natural and necessary.
LOL keep your beetle kill timber, I only build my houses OOT of the MOST endangered giant sequoia trees, and yes I know you cant make beams of panels from seqouia, i just liquify it into giant seqouia cardboard and build with that
I am imagining how fast the silverfish will eat it up if not perhaps the termites. The dry climate here at least won't turn it to mush.
Gobsmacking....amazing.....conceptual brilliance...this design and simplicity is so adaptable.. An. environmently light footprint ..is an understatement...⭐
wonderful, beautiful, minimalistic house. Very high quality work, supper, now I will dream about it. Natural materials, environmental friendliness, bravo👍👍👍...🙂
The most important part of the sample house is the Fifth Element. Everything revolves around the Fifth Element.
Now that you say that, I'm half expecting a blue alien to come out and start singing.

Thanks for the Documentary,Kirsten. It has got me thinking. God bless you.
I looked it up, and a completed Wikkelhouse is supposed to cost $80,000... not exactly cheap for a "cardboard home"
Its not cheap at all. Its not well aislated and the walls cannot breath. It Will be a pain
This is built for very specific things. Boats would work with this maybe or maybe on planes. But normal living this would be terrible.
Maybe places in Africa or low poverty places. But honestly it's probably too expensive for them.
I was wondering what the price was . Thanks .
@Thomas Truther I agree that it's not very practical for someone without a six figure income but the designer said he would be happy if it only served as an inspiration and I think it meets that criteria. There are many interesting ideas and uses of cardboard I was not aware of.
This is BRILLIANT!!!!! I hope I can buy a home from this company and have it here in the US.
Wonderful!!!
What a game changer,
these houses can make
a big difference in so
many countries where
people need housing.
This is a game changer
in the housing markets
around the world, again
great idea!!!🎉🎉🎉
I love this almost as much as a dome house or an earthen house idea. So amazing!
Brilliant design & concept!
Love this man's enthusiasm as he walks us thru the components.
I'd be in this house - in a heartbeat💜
This is exactly what We need in Australia against bushfire 😃
@john smith Or imagine stepping on some pyromaniac's toe while out and about, perhaps spilling your beer over his Hilfiger T-shirt
In the US in the 90s, there was a woman who lived in a house insulated with "fireproof" paper shreds. A leak developed in her attic walls and she did not know it. The fireproofing was washed out of the paper, it dried. She used an insect bomb in her basement, the pilot light of her water heater set the insect fog on fire, and the whole house burned. The dried paper out of which the fireproofing had been washed was a large cause of the total damage. Until the insurance company figured out what happened, she was charged with arson, they thought she had done something intentionally.
I do not trust a flammable substance soaked in flame retardant chemicals.
@@lizh1988 So you wouldn't live in a wooden house either, since wood is also flammable?
@@ErnestRodgers My point is you can't necessarily trust something with flame retardant chemicals. I may have posted this in response to the wrong comment, I'll have to go back and check.
@@lizh1988 It's a good point. It's the same situation with wooden houses. I wonder if water sprinklers would be effective, but my guess is have everything insured and get out in case of a fire.
I dont understand all the hate in the comment section because some one is trying a new method, it might not be the cheapest construction method out there and might not last 100 years but thats not the point. New houses these days are not built to last that length of time anyway with most companys refusing to offer any sort of protection past the 15 year mark. How often do you actually come across a 50+ year old house that hasnt been rebuilt in some form ????
Yes its a cardboard house in a way but its not a house just made out of cardboard, if you actually watched the video and understood what they were doing then you would understand why it costs what it does. The equipment required isnt cheap and the processes of forming then bonding all the plywood panels isnt a quick job and requires skilled craftsmen.
I love this idea and its giving me a different opinion when it comes to building my own place which if im honest was stuck at the shipping container stage currently, I dont care if the building doesnt last 100 years i will be long dead by then so why should it matter to anyone else if thier houses last longer than they do ?? Money and property doent mean anything once you are gone.
Really great concept fully fleshed out for a market unready to accept alternatives to ... our current model of waste, excess, and idiocracy.
"Do refrigerators still come in cardboard boxes?"
"Yeah, but the rents are outrageous!"
And Fry ended up living in a robot's closet with his house warning fruit salad tree for over a decade after discovering the rent was beyond his means. But hey, at least the closet isn't in New Jersey, right?
Absolutely love the concept and the innovation behind it. My biggest concern is, for various reasons (elements, contractor/homeowner mistakes, etc), structures will always eventually spring a leak. Most leaks go unnoticed until the real damage is already done, and with these modules being made up of 70% cardboard, that damage could be extensive.
No gutters, the building will sit in water.
Isn't it refreshing how down to earth this guy is with his own stuff ? He has no need to oversell apparently.
Modular building is not new but building in these materials is... i think this is a first step in the evolution of bringing down build cost and doing it at a factory level...Why not....
Wow, Fire resistance, and Environmental friendly. Leaders around the world should see this.
The Dutch are funny folks. “Solar panel eats the sun.” 😂
Im sure he meant that solar panels “eat” the sunlight. Perhaps english was his second language. He got his point across, excellent video! Sadly these are not available in the US, probably thanks to some lobbyist hard at work with the whoring US lawmakers I see.

@Miguel Cortez well, this is not the kind of housing you want in the kind of place where people drive bulldozers into ATMs, which by now is 99% of the planet I guess
I see what you mean. The cardboard is protected against bumping by the timber layer on the outside and inside. That’s why they didn’t just varnish the cardboard. It is still quite funny though.
For those interested, they cost around 11,000 euro per segment. Shipping container prefabs are likely to be better value
In Germany you get "flatpack" prefabs with proper walls that can be shipped with regular trucks and put up in a single day. Which gives you more of a traditional sturdy house than this and is only slightly more expensive, if at all.
I have to wonder about that "raincoat" moisture barrier he spoke about that's exposed despite the facade covering. If that get punctured from debris or animals, the cardboard is open to being soaked.... By the time you notice the soak from the inside, the cardboard would've already deteriorated and molded on the outer surfaces.
There's wooden cladding on top of the raincoat
@@Bork_Cruk Right. I acknowledged that already. The cladding strips has gaps in between themselves from what it looks like, no?
That was what I was thinking as well. Looks to thin.
Probably not a structure you’d want to have in the pasture with the bulls.
But then again, would you want “animals” abusing the house you live in now?
@@aos-archive Sorry, didn't see that. I dunno, I'd say it's probably pretty sturdy. But I get what you mean, if it was punctured and you didn't know, could cause problems. Same is true of many structures though. Get a leak in your roof you don't know about and you can have serious issues. I'm sure it's still repairable.
Hello Kirsten, Thank you so much for your many excellent & interesting videos!! I think I've seen about 5 so far. Not only have you shown us fascinating people & projects all over the world, you've shot & edited beautiful stories as well. It's clear you have real passion for the subject but you're also an extraordinary story teller. Crafts-woman-ship will out!! PK
Paging Frank Gehry! They've got your chair! This seems to be the distillation of natural modular building design. I mean, paper structure and flax fiber insulation. Mr. Schilling is so enthusiastic about this being a mass appeal possibility, it's catching! Thanks for posting!
oh i just found out , it's basically 10k for module, so 8 module it's 80k(euro), i wonder how long it would last?
FrankValchiria at least 50 years according to the site
10 k for a module sounds a bit too much. But on the other hand. A tiny house that’s big and ready for 100k and 10x4,5 meters is big bro!
A bit expensive for what it is. Probably needs to be mass produced to go down in price.
50 years in perfect elements. Send this to Alaska or the amazon and see what happens.
@Yu Tu - but it's a renewable resource and environmentally friendly! Treehuggers r' us!!! 😂😂 NOT! This thing is too fragile. An overglorified cardboard box for rich people who want to experience homelessness. Just get a real home. in the end, they retain value, can be resold, and you can raise a real family without upgrading with every body digit you grow, or kid you get. Oh yeah. you also wont have to come home from a hard day's work to find out someone drove off with your home and all the your precious possessions you somehow squeeze packed in it.
I was so waiting for him to say "And here's the small kitchen where you can make coffee, or maybe have a Shmoke and a Pancake."
A crepe and a pipe
A spacecake
it starts at 30k for 3 sections....without the price of delivery and probably no foundation..so its not cheap. but its cardboard.
What a damn joke - CardBoard for your house? - Come on - One punch through - just a little bit of water - it's then fucked.
It's not BUT but AND. "It's not cheap AND it is Cardboard". Waste of time and money. A house that can't stand for at least 50 years is not a house but a waste of energy and quite frankly, a harm to our Environment. :/ These House of cardboard won't even live longer than 20 years.
ship container house is much affordable and reliable than this
Not to mention all the red tape and codes that you would have to go through ,linvon logs cant even do this with the building adminstrators making excuses cuz its not ther way ,gas snd water hookup electricity ,good luck preswood doesnt live up to it ehy would card board be any better both a nightmare.
@@s_s7214 Yeah, like any american house with thin walls made from plaster boards. 🤣 We have better houses in Europe, with brick walls etc. Whenever I watch any tv show or yt video about it, all I see that these american houses have walls which you can kick and destroy easily.
Amazing..hopefully everybody can afford to have very own house no matter what size it is..these can be one of the solution
This is a perfect product for hemp cardboard. No forests destroyed.
Nice house, my only concern is if it's anti plagues (mice, insects, etc.)
and how about fire?
@@BOSWAHANA81 8:06
According to the video, the cardboard is soaked in a fireproofing solution, which also hardens the layers, but I would also worry about vermin infiltration, especially wooded areas
So this is what I'm supposed to do with all of the Amazon boxes.
Very interesting viewing, thanks again Kirsten 🤘🏻
You are still the mistress Of SHARING thanks for your great interviews.
I see how this could be a trend of future architecture design to create quarantine spaces
Take a shot every time he says cardboard lmaooo
I said the same lol
Lmao hahahahahaha
Or office lol. L
🤣
Imran Rashid: it must not rain in Holland
“ two shots of vodKAAAA”
Watching in 2020. I really want one of these! (Well...6 of them, I guess).
Can you make the cardboard out of hemp paper? Less tree product. Fast-growing bamboo fibers? Grasses need to come to the forefront.
I wondered myself if they were using flax fibers for the cardboard paper since they were using flax for the alternative insulation and the shower pan. Flax is an annual herb too.
Good idea, get on dragons den lol
They used to use Hemp to make loads of stuff from rope to clothes so I wouldn't be surprised if you couldn't do it with Hemp.
Hemp would be much more durable material. It's stronger and more weather resident than plan old cardboard.
Fascinating. I’m also impressed by the camera and editing. Excellent work.
for those that don't understand dutch..with "wikkel machine" he means wrapping machine!
with facade..he means the face or exterior of the house
I'm going to buy one, so i can tell my friends that i live in a cardboard box!!😂
I could see problems with mold if the plastic seal isn't perfect, but the sections idea is really cool!
this thick layer of cardbord will be nice and sweet home for - BACTERIAS MOLD FUNGUS whatever!
@Chris Ruiz which also keep moisture inside once it get in - bright idea
It looked like a breathable fabric to me. At the very least it would have to be UV-stable, and there are a number of modern roofing materials that would fit the bill that are breathable.
I don't think mold is going to be an issue, but I guess that _if_ the inner vapour barrier or the outer weatherproofing was breached and the cardboard did get wet and mold _did_ set in it would certainly spread faster than it does on plywood or timber.
Thanks Kirsten for bringing such a great material!
Amazing concept! The inventions these days boggle the mind!
"Straw houses, my company builds them." he stated as the wolf started a huff.
Somewhere in the world, a group of homeless people is preparing a class-action lawsuit for copyright infringement.
Lol
Not FUNNY..and yet you are not helping them to find housing ...
Lmao
Yeah! On the deserts hehehehe
@lew bronstein He/she should keep it there. I'm cruel.
It's really a good innovative product but what is the point since the price per segment is too pricey. (10K per segment and at least you need 8 segment of them to complete for a house).
Afterall it is just a cardboard.
Such amazing vision and ingenuity. I am very impressed and love his enthuism
Love this idea! I wish they were available in more countries.
One of most common sensed mini modular habitats Ive seen.
Helloverlord what part of common sense is still using trees and this structure is flammable and also easy for pests and vermin to come in...not to mention water and moisture would become a problem-
@@eathealthier4u It's recycled cardboard fiber. And it's probably impregnated with boric acid, which is fire retardant and toxic to insect exoskeletons. Why would would you think that these people put so much thought into all of these manufacturing steps without solving the most basic design flaws first?
This channel very often demonstrates how government regulations strangle alternative ways of doing things. In Holland you must a special permit not to have a hall (entryway)? How ridiculous. So many useless regulations standing in the way of progress.
The obvious solution is to make a version of their entry module that has a wall running across the back with a doorway - simple - your first module then serves as your front hall.
Rhonda Flesher what if you don't want to block off a section pointlessly and spend 10k euro for a useless fucking waste of space entry hall? No, the obvious solution is for the government to make regulations which help people and which make sense, not to fuck up basic living.
This is probably a fire containment measure, legislation is often not as simple as it first appears. As he said, you can apply for an exemption, so it it obviously not applicable to all builds/sizes of home.
A hall or mudroom is a must have in cold winters. If you have none, your house will get freezingly cold whenever you open your door.
Progress (the industrial revolution) and its exploitation of working class people, caused the law on homes (Woningwet). In 1900 1 million Dutch people lived in slums and alleys: that's 1 in 5. In one room, often lived a whole family of 15 people. Their homes were dilapidated but expensive.
50 Years earlier the King asked for basic requirements to working class homes. The advice was to make them weather proof; have access to sunlight, fresh air & water; and have drainage of urine and feces. That tells you that these slums didn't have all that. It took 50 years and some deadly diseases (like the 1886 cholera epidemic) to take the problems of ordinary folks serious.
That's all well and good but now obsolete and the reverse is true. Regulations have become why there is not enough alternative ways of doing housing for everyone. They stifle innovation and creativity as well as the freedom to choose how people want to live in the 21st century.
It's interesting, but I like the 3D printed concrete houses better.
Agree
@marthale7 cement isn't strong without reinforcement. it can't handle any tension. and beside that it also cracks. which is no good.
i would love too see a 3-d printed house get around those problems though.
The cement industry is a huge greenhouse gas emitter. Sinking carbon in wood structures -- or, in this case, cardboard and wood -- is a lot safer for the climate in the very long term. (As long as we make sure we're growing / harvesting / replanting the trees sustainably.)
@Rafaela Mora the search button here on TH-cam and also on your favorite search engine would probably bring you the results you're looking for.
Im so sorry to hear you dont live in a 3d house... are you one of those 2 dimensional flat earthers?
I was lucky enough to purchase one of these custom modual homes and I can tell you first hand the experience was incredible! For myself I combined 4 bathroom modular units together and a kitchen for all of my needs and I have been happy and also have plenty of room to contain my waste. This summer Im thinking of adding a garden modular unit or perhaps another bathroom! Cheerio!
There is something about that bathroom unit. Good bang for the buck?
Love it …. Made it on a bet..Ideas in action !! Bravo The Guy absolutely loves what he does!!
Brilliant - flexible thinking!
I always wanted a Termite-mold-farm-fire-nest of my very own.
To add insult to injury, you spent a ton of money on it!
Right!
hahahaha
Trynnun02, if a fire trapped kids in that closet of a bedroom, I'm not confident they could rush out those windows.
It looks like they are not made to open fully.
It's for Europe, don't have termites. Just got back from Amsterdam, makes total sense there. 8:05
The Only good thing I was expecting out of this was low cost... I am Really disappointed!
How much do they cost?
@@Theonetheonlysteven Since Wikkelhouse is a modular concept the price is based on the configuration of segments needed. You can purchase a Wikkelhouse starting from EUR 30.000,- excl. VAT (based on 3 segments and excluding transport and placement). However, most houses are sold in between EUR 50.000,- and 85.000,- excl. VAT, transport and placement.
$80k US. Which is not bad at all. Now that doesn't include site prep, sewage disposal system and other utility hook ups or the land. I have been building a cabin with my wife, part time, for the past 2 1/2 years and when I am all done I will be around 150K US.
would love to see a design that has universal lifemark standards for accessibility for disabled needs.
They'd make excellent bunk houses for a summer camp
Wish I could afford this, and the plot of land it would stand on ... ❤️
The carbon foot print is probably less with common construction.
That’s a lot of wood and not cheap.
Wood has a zero carbon footprint, it’s renewable. Only the energy go shape it. Concrete has a much higher footprint.
Cardboard is made by wood...
I still see trees.
haha you obviously have no idea what you are talking about
@@martinstrunk4682 er, you realize concrete is sand and lime, right?
Guys talks a mile a minute = not getting a good return on his investment. Just build it without the cardboard - Problem solved. I mean the cardboard aspect brings interest and is at the same time it's biggest detractor. Cardboard doesn't make sense if it's still so expensive.
Yes....I wonder what they could accomplish with hemp in this regard. It could replace the wood/paper layers. And it's quick to grow/harvest.
@@McBeth. there isnt a strong hemp growing industry and supply chain system to make it a cheap alternative. probably would hike the price even more. Also dont know the qualities of hemp but isnt it very combustible due to oil found naturally in hemp plant?
I like the concept , I like the shaping and angles BUT the price is hilarious, really.
I think we should look at this like an idea in evolution. We can find a bunch of problems with the concept, but at the end, it will spark other ideas that will make this better or totally different. Great job and very interesting.
Remember that your parents could pay their house mortgage in 10 - 15 years with a single income
"ItS CaRDbOaRd~!! "
Exactly!! Fucking Cardboard....
This awesome! If you want to add more segments later, is that possible?
I would say yes, sense modularization has been built into the design
I don’t know, I see a shed made out of plywood with cardboard insulation. Am I missing something?
yes, imagination.
This guy is awesome! No nonsense explanations!
I love the variety of homes in your channel! Thank you!
That house counldn't survive UPS shipping, much less a storm.
@john smith Yes, cause none of those critters can ever get into any of the 'normal' houses.
@john smith If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Most people in 'non normal' countries live and you might be surprised that what is here is a luxury for many.
@john smith Ok John Smith from India, I guess the folks who made these houses are beginners and have no idea on what they are doing. You can find them online and I suggest you help out by offering your solutions. As for the privilege comment, i guess folks making it, designing it, using the materials etc should be payed in what, cardboard. :D
@john smith I don't think that is their aim.
Amazing !!
“It’s affordable, but it’s not cheap.” It’s NOT cheap and NOT worth it. 80k for a cardboard trailer? Nice try, but keep trying. This thing shouldn’t cost more than 20-30k.
My 2 bed house with a front and back garden cost less than 80k.
Hey, cardboard doesn't grow on trees, you know! Hmmm, now that I think on it, the walls here are like reconstituted trees.
TheRedPIll these are Amsterdam based prices, different area, different costs.
not cheap for sure. The cost I'm sure comes in the labour. Very cool though.
