Default The shape of things to come?
I like the cheap recyclable housing, imagine being able to point the living room towards the sun in winter saving huge amounts of heating costs.

If I do not like staying in one area, pack up and move... [smiley=icon_wink.gif]

However, it is still far before we see these housing appearing in every town..

The vertical villages is so much like Singapore, 80% of us stay in high rise buildings. However the down part as pointed out is lack of physical space and that is one of the reasons I am moving out!

My apartment costs NZD$250,000 in Singapore and it is only 104m2 and government subsidised part of the costs. [smiley=icon_neutral.gif] So those private apartments in Singapore can go up as high as NZD$450,000 to $1.8 million easily depending on size and town. Not to mention houses (Which I dream of owning one finally in NZ) that can go for sale from minimum NZD$1 million to the sky the limit.
