What a great idea! A gold metallic tent that folds up to carry around until you need it.
"Called “Basic House,” it was designed by Spanish artist Martín Ruiz de Azúa and is a very compact tent-like structure that is intended to be inflated with hot air from grates in the city sidewalks, and then stay inflated and heated inside with its reflective material."
"In 2001, Hella Jongerius produced Mobile Dreaming, a collaboration between Royal Auping and The Fabric Workshop and Museum, to present visionary ideas from artists and designers on the theme of mobile living. Jongerius’ piece was a sleeping-bag and garment merged into one. The item was produced at the Fabric Workshop in Philadelphia and shown for the first time at De Kunsthal in Rotterdam."
Today I moved into one of the cutest houses filled with some of the best art! Also I have the pleasure of taking care of a six month old puppy and two kitties.
I think Claude is happy that we have been reunited. He meowed for 10 hours straight! Back at one of my favorite houses for the rest of the month!
This house sitting gig is alright!
Goodbye house with the pool and huge jacuzzi tub. It was a great stay!
The neighbors are so nice and friendly at this house. I just got a handful of fresh mint.
I wouldn't mind house sitting for a few of these houses. Bright colors and clean lines, what more can you ask for?

"I bought these shoes after going through my last pair. I had actually worn through the soles. I bought these shoes in a bit of a haste and got one size too big (it's all they had). The shoes are great, but I'm willing to part with them. Size 11."
Kelly Sutton talking about his Diesel Boat Shoes ($90) which are featured on his website, cultofless.com. These shoes are just one of the many items Sutton has decided to sell in "an attempt to own as little as possible." In 2010, Matthew Danzico published an article with the BBC, Cult of Less: Living out of a Hard Drive, which profiled not only Sutton but also, Chris Yurista. Yurista's story holds a similar narrative to my own, he has gotten rid of the majority of his possessions to only what he can carry on his back. His working life consists of full time work as a travel agent and moonlighting as a DJ. He has ditched the records and plays from music files, turning the majority of his physical possessions to digital possessions.
Danzico ends the BBC article, Cult of Less: Living out of a Hard Drive, with an interesting conclusion. If we have come to a point where technology and the internet have satisfied our need for a physical home and owning possessions, maybe it has has satisfied the need for having a physical body as well. Anders Sandberg, a research fellow at the Future of Humanity Institute at Oxford University, puts forth a theory about the future of the human race, "Dr Sandberg believes we could be living on hard drives along with our digital possessions in the not too distant future, which would allow us to shed the trouble of owning a body." He calls this concept "mind uploading," which would allow us to map our brains on the computer and essentially live forever without the need of an aging body.
It was a short stay, only a week, but one of my favorites!
The past month has included learning to pop welding seams, installing plywood and screwing in the official closet bar; now you can enter through the trunk and come out in the drivers seat. Time for a photo shoot!
Ranu Mukherje is a contemporary artist who focuses on the idea of the nomadic person. She currently lives in San Francisco, California.
"Ranu Mukherjee is a multi-disciplinary artist making hybrid films, works on paper and collaborative projects. Her recent work focuses on processes of creolization, the figure of the nomad, speculative narratives and the visual and political history of 19th century Indian lithographs.She generally refers to encounters with embodiment, ecology, the science-fictional and the unknown, exploring narrative excess and material conditions brought on by global capitalism. Ranu co-created the collaborative artist orphan drift in London in the 1990's. She has participated in numerous exhibitions and screenings internationally. She is represented by Frey Norris Contemporary and Modern. Ranu has 5 year old triplets and is growing tentacles."
Mukherjee received her M.F.A. from the Royal College of Art, Painting Department, London, and her B.F.A. from the Massachusetts College of Art, Boston. In 2010 she was a featured artist in Noma gallery's Videohole and received a Kala Fellowship Award.
Using a Piaggio APE 50 (a three wheeled light transport vehicle) Cornelius Comanns created the Bufalino. The Bufalino is a one person mobile camper. Comanns sees this invention making travel easier and more spontaneous, therefore giving us more freedom to move around. The interior features furnished interior consisting of a bed, two seating units, a cooking zone, a basin, storage space, a water tank and a refrigerator.
I want one.

Back to Our Roots: Reconsidering the American Dream
The typical American suburban home, is an outmoded model. It’s time to build new blueprints for a more sustainable lifestyle blurring the lines between public and private space, and revising the way we view domestic architecture. Our opportunity for prosperity and success become stifled when we tie the ideas of stability and permanence together. Several contemporary artists and architects have used a variety of methods to present innovative perspectives on one of our basic needs, shelter. The commonality that these contemporary practitioners share is an interest in challenging the status quo and presenting new ideas on how we can live. Andrea Zittel, who is most well known for her sculptural and installation-based living units, LOT/EK, who designed mobile living units from repurposed shipping containers and Matthew Weddington, who attempted to live outside in a cardboard refrigerator box for 30 days in downtown Chicago; these ways of working are only three examples of various approaches to exploring these ideas. Their work brings to question what our society considers necessity and success while suggesting mobility as one answer. Zittel, LOT/EK and Weddington all argue that a nomadic lifestyle brings us more freedom, which in turn, brings us closer to the traditional definition of the American Dream. In an increasingly mobile society, where technology is making everything smaller and more compact, we still aim to reside in spacious permanent structures.
