It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche

Nah...
That would depress the hell out of any homeless person. I expect better of the Japanese.

Hmnn, as it probably would have been paid for by the taxpayer, I'm afraid i would tell any complainers to go sleep in your car then.
Can't expect better of the Japanese when you look at the tiny cars they make for the home market. (Kei cars) Most of them are just fugly. Hard to create beauty when you are restricted in size..... take me for example

And me! Unless round and wrinkly appeals, lol.
But the Japanese do have an incredible aesthetic sense. As a culture... Just look at those geishas for instance...

Finding the land to put the homes is the issue now it seems, particularly in Auckland and same goes for Tauranga.
China has been big on the whole 3D printing idea too.

Ugly ugly ugly perhaps if you stuck a dozen or so together, they could work. And put some colour on the damn things - WHY the devil is everything regulation pale grey these days fgs??!
Incidentally, grey has to be the most depressing colour in existence, hideous, hideous colour.
Its a good idea in principle but needs work - & colour. Maybe get a Geisha to design one - I learned this week that Geisha literally means art person so they could hardly do worse.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)

If that price is in US$, a 37,600 dollar car might well be bigger than that house.
Would white with red spots suit? It works well on toadstools - - -
