The Swiss Army House
This tiny house has furniture folded inside its walls, mimicking the functionality of a Swiss Army Knife.
The ninety-six-square-foot building, which cost just £35,000 to build, starts out consisting of a single white room with no decor in sight.
But as the walls are unfolded its true functionality emerges.
It has a bed that folds down and an ingenious kitchen area, complete with a hob, cupboard space and a table and chairs for entertaining guests.
A bathroom, complete with a luxurious shower, can even be pulled out through a small gap in the wall.

The miniature ‘Swiss Army’ house, called aVOID, is currently parked up inside the garden of Bauhaus-Archiv in the centre of Berlin.
Innovative wall-mounted mobile devices can be activated to pull out various pieces of furniture.
It is the result of an artistic-architectural research project directed by Leonardo Di Chiara in collaboration with Tinyhouse University.
