搵個山頭自給自足！Ecocapsule 流動膠囊屋接受預訂

在衣食住行這項生活環節中，相信香港人目前所遇到的最大問題肯定是住屋方面，而且最近有電視劇更道出了有樓及無樓人士的心聲。不過若然大家本身有點本錢，但卻又買不起過百萬的香港房屋，那麼就不妨考慮一下以下介紹的這個自給自足 Ecocapsule 流動膠囊屋吧！

Ecocapsule 流動膠囊屋是由斯洛伐克工作室 Nice Architects 所設計的最新產品，正如圖中所看到，Ecocapsule 主要採用了蛋型的設計，由於整間屋的大小只有 2.55 x 4.45 x 2.25/4.5 米，而重量則為 1,500kg，因此只需用一般的吊臂貨車便能進行運送。

雖然 Ecocapsule 的體積不算太大，不過當中卻設有一般生活需要用到的各種設備，例如屋內設有摺床、廚房、廁所、浴室、儲物櫃、工作及用餐空間等，有足夠空間可容納兩個人居住。至於電力及食水方面亦不用擔心，因為 Ecocapsule 具備太陽能電池板、風力渦輪機及雨水收集器，相當環保，而且產生多出的電力更可儲存起來，以便沒有陽光及風的情況下依然有足夠電力使用。

有了 Ecocapsule，以後只需找個山邊便無需再擔心住屋問題。現時官方已經設計出其原型版本，並暫定今年第四季開始接受預訂，以及於明年上半年正式出貨。比較可惜的是官方現時仍未公佈其價格，不過相信其價錢應該比香港的樓價便宜得多吧？

What if These Were Made Available to the Poor

Ecocapsule is a low-energy house packed into a compact form. It merges an energy efficient shape, compact volume and off-grid capabilities with the luxuries of a warm bed, running water and a hot meal.

Even though small in size, each Ecocapsule comfortably houses two adults. Its efficient spatial layout allows you to enjoy convenience of household facilities in off-grid conditions. Built-in kitchenette with running water, flushing toilet and hot shower are luxuries of a hotel room that are now also available in wilderness.

Plenty of storage space also fits all your sport or research equipment. Despite its small form each Ecocapsule is fitted with all essentials necessary for a comfortable prolonged stay without a need to recharge or re-supply. Ecocapsule is powered by a built-in wind turbine complemented with an array of solar cells. Dual power system and a high-capacity battery ensures that you will have enough power during periods of reduced solar or wind activity. Spherical shape is optimized for the collection of rainwater and dew and the built-in water filters allow you to utilize any water source.
