"Beijing architect lives in egg-shaped house on sidewalk
By Lori Bongiorno and Trystan L. Bass
More from Green Picks blog
Dai Haifei, a 24-year-old architect in Beijing, China, found an ingenious solution to live rent-free. He built himself a mobile egg-shaped house that is powered by the sun.
The 6-foot-high structure, which is small enough to fit on a sidewalk, is made of bamboo strips, wood chippings, sack bags, and grass seed that’s expected to grow in the spring.
The pod features a solar panel on the roof that powers a lamp in the cozy space. The house cost around $1,000 to build (6427 yen), according to China Daily.
It seems Haifei has taken the trend of living in tiny spaces to a whole new level.
**Dai Haifei 24yrs goes to club, later after few drinks he meet hot girl so talked & then later decides to go back to his place for some more fun but then when hot girl finds out he lives in egg-shaped house on sidewalk.......uh-oh**
I went up to a cute chick and asked her if she'd let me take a photo of her for $30 she slapped me, she said to me that "I AIN'T A WHORE!"
But other than that I have seen every car on display in DTP just by cruising about in Richmond, thank you very much for collecting them together and get someone to sing a cover for "fuck you".
OH FUCK YOU OH OH OOOOH~

I think this is a start of some kind of solutions for the third world countries.
affordable and portable homes!
I hate to say this, but Vancouver should just build a bunch of this for low income housings. They should just sell the olympic condos at full prices to only ppl who can pay the full premium prices, and use the revenue from that to build egg-shape houses.
of course, I disgree with supply any housing to ppl who are too lazy to work.
rofl how can he do it in there? must get very creative. Also, what if it snows?
The story is like this, this guy works for an architect company. Rent is so damn high in Beijing, he bought some building materials to build this egg. The egg is within the company premise, so he can boil water at work. Sometimes it's too damn cold, he has to stay inside the building.

His work place is like right beside the egg. He could just go back work to pee and shit.

The egg has wheels underneath. I bet he has a bike lock or something.
interesting idea but my dogs would piss all over it, no joke lol.
i too am curious where he goes to the washroom. for showering, it's not uncommon to use bath houses and community centres/gyms in asia. could you imagine entire communities of these egg pods? lol. we could make an egg city for the homeless somewhere.

I don't see it very practical if I had explosive diarrhea in the middle of the night.
who are you planning to spend the rest of your life with? your sister or girlfriend?

This guy built an egg on the side of the street and refers to himself as an architect.

How about starting to tag homeless persons.
It should be a provincial problem when it comes to budgetary concerns, we're dealing with a bunch of runaways from the east that come down to Vancouver for the 'milder' weather.
Also, start creating camps for the homeless people. Pay them <min wage w/ housing, etc. Imagine crown corps that start competing with asia for manual labour.
