Crayola-Colored Toy Box Mobile Home


It may look like a colorful toy box for children but it is a working tiny house for those who love to move from place to place. Made from modern materials and ingeniously designed to conserve space without compromising livability, this mobile home has corrugated fiberglass panels with painted cedar trim, sustainable forestry pine awning windows and sliding porch door with dual pane tempered glazing, white thermo-plastic membrane roof, and beveled cedar siding.

Designed by Illinois-based builders Paul Schultz and Frank Henderson, this colorful 140-square-foot micro dwelling on wheels,has eco-friendly features such as energy-efficient thermoplastic roofing, a large sliding glass door and windows that enhance day-lighting and natural ventilation, and built-in planters that can be irrigated by gray water from interior sinks. Other distinguishing features include storage cubes that can transform into different seating configurations in the living room, a floating cabinet for housing common cooking ingredients, and a loft big enough for a king-size bed.
