What if necessary "steps" availability of urban infrastructure, and the price for a suitable site in the 10 hundred bites? In this case, the solution may be to build a compact house on a plot of 3-4 ha.

Let us consider two interesting project: a house in the shape of a cross and the house set on a pedestal. The chip of the houses in that spot with minimum development, their developers were able to design a functional and suitable for year-round home with all the amenities.

We already told readers FORUMHOUSE, what it can turn an ordinary steel containerIf we approach the matter with fiction and fantasy. Developer 'cross home "went further. Cottage represents two marine container, connected with each other. One of the containers put upright, and the other is fixed horizontally.

As used foundation pile screwed into the ground below the freezing depth. The house is surrounded by a small terrace and is divided into four functional units.

First floor - utility room and hallway with staircase compact (such as goose-step), which leads to the second floor where the toilet and shower. The total area of ​​two blocks - 40 sq.m.

The third block - horizontally delivered container - a full total floor area of ​​100 m where the bedroom, the kitchen and the office.

If you climb the stairs above, then you get to the "loft", which can be used as a guest room or storage space.

It is noteworthy that the roof of the second, horizontal container is both the basis for the kind of high-altitude terraces - playgrounds for the summer holidays over a cup of tea and viewing the surroundings. On the opposite side of the track is a system for collecting rainwater storage tank and solar collectors. On the roof of the house additionally installed solar panels.

House sheathed imitation lumber and, depending on the climate zone can be further insulated from the outside. Upon customer request, the house can be heated by electricity or a small pellet fireplace.

As acknowledged by the architect, the main idea of ​​this project - to show people that even in a small area, you can build a comfortable and modern house, suitable for 2 people.

The second project is a compact home called "House on the podium." The dwelling is a carcass structure built on the basis of wooden beams or metal U-sections. The foundation also pile. Stairs in the house - from the outside.

Despite the diminutive size, dwelling area of ​​less than 40 square meters, the house can accommodate two people. The pedestal on which stands the house, can be used as a utility room, storage room and toilet. The second floor has a free plan on a "studio." In it there is no division in the rooms and walls and floor is one room broken into functional areas - kitchen, bedroom, office.

This house also implemented a system of rainwater collection and solar panels. House decorated in wood, on the walls of the vertical garden is arranged. As an option, can be equipped with access to the roof or to make the superstructure in the form of the second floor.

Authors of the project say that their main task was to the maximum simplification and cheapening of the design house, as well as minimizing the spot for development. For example, they suggest the use of space, located next to the pedestal, as the parking lot for 1-2 cars. Overhang the house serves as a canopy.

After running the idea, house developers plan to put its production on stream. The house will be brought to the construction site in the form of two pre-engineered and mounted manipulator. According to the calculations of Architects, together with clearing the site, the manufacture of the foundation and the connection of all utilities, to build a house she will go from three to five days.
