Mock FMP

When trying to incorporate Chindogu within interior design I started to look into the 'Tiny Houses' movement. I did this because I still wanted to look into interior design but link it with Chindogu and in Chindogu the idea is 'unuseless' so it works, but why would you go to that extreme? You could probably build a 'normal' sized house but to be different and a little interesting you build a tiny house instead.
The movement is gradually catching on in the UK where more and more people are looking to their gardens to create a bit more living space. It could just be for a teenager, a spare bedroom or a bit of extra space. These homes are custom built, fully insulated, luxury cabins are built like a house which will last a lifetime. There are many reasons one would like to have a tiny house as they can be fully mobile and easy to park, can be fitted with a shower, W/C and kitchen so it becomes fully liveable, elevated beds and a huge selling point is that in most cases you don't need planning permission.
This is just a standard within Tiny houses but it can be taken even further by warping the building so it isn't as 'normal' and standard or by looking into the interior and changing furniture to be unrealistic and strange.

The Tiny Houses movement was my favourite ideas, but it doesn't just stop there. You can look into a variety of ideas like the type of house for example; tiny houses, tree houses, caravans, garden sheds or even mud huts. Then from here you can look into the location, some locations are obvious but you could also look at underground homes, portable homes/car homes and even mini houses you can wear on your back (this idea goes into fashion perhaps a dress or coat equipped with everything you need). Another favourite idea was when I was looking into the recycling side of things and keeping it all environmentally friendly. So, you can look at bottles, pet bottles, hay bales, glass bottle windows and my personal favourite the palette project.
The palette project aspires to be aesthetically pleasing but also to a greater degree of function and practicality. It is highly environmentally consciousness along with spatial awareness and to enhance your surroundings.
