Toynbee Tiles

A Toynbee Tile found on a busy street in Philadelphia

I’ve been interested in the idea of making some Toynbee Tiles since I first learned of them last fall. Seems that these should be more popular considering that they can last up to a decade if they’re done right.

N55 Manuals

The Walking House by N55

WALKING HOUSE is a modular dwelling system that enables persons to live a peaceful nomadic life, moving slowly through the landscape or cityscape with minimal impact on the environment.

N55 is, in their own words “a platform for persons who wants to work together, share places to live, economy, and means of production.” N55 is based in Copenhagen and they make awesome things that you can build (or partake in) with manuals they provide on their very scandinavian website.

It is my dream to build and live in something like their amphibious Micro Dwellings. I could also shave my head and eyebrows and listen to Brian Eno all day.
