I was doing my daily Youtube video browsing when i came across a video of what appeared to be a small house. I clicked and began watching it, realizing in fact that it was a portable cube home that took an impressive 4 hours to set up and costing only £10,000... Incredible!

With the house prices in the UK rising every day, this would be a great investment, not only does it only cost £10,000 but is actually very well designed.  It comes with a double bed, a kitchen, a small living room and a bathroom. Additionally it also has many storage locations all around, and lets not forget it has two floors!

This is one of these 'see it to believe it' things so heres the video i came across: 
 
If your wondering about the running costs, its fairly minimal. With efficiency in the minds of the creators, they make great use of LED lighting, efficient heating systems and a very efficient Television.

It does look really neat, and it is tempting but unfortunately the founders and creators of the 'cube home' are not planning to sell or create any... yet. I'm sure if they get enough demand for it, they would think about it. Not to mention the troubles you would get yourself into if you build one. Where would you get electricity? How about sewage problems? Also im pretty sure you would need some sort of housing license to build one.

So as much as i love the idea and design, its really not for the average person (unless you own a private island of course)
