We may be offline for a couple of weeks as we pack our bags and move to Australia. In our dreams, anyways, but clearly wonderful prefab things are happening there and the climate lets them do such stunners. Others like Edgar Blazona have designed small garden-shed type prefabs with some style; This one is truly elegant. Noek Design's philosophy:
relate to nature;let it speak
simplify and reveal; discover the beauty
sustainable use of materials
adding value where possible
-words all designers could live by.
interior finishes come standard with plywood covered in "wood chip" wallpaper but can be upgraded. ::Noek_Design (we hate flash but love their little loading graphic) via ::Inhabitat
