Moving to Freedom

 

How many times will you move in your lifetime? Imagine if you could lead the life of a nomad but with a house that moves with you when you change location. Perfect, right? A wandering lifestyle is exciting, with unexpected adventures. Architect Gerold Pelham introduced Nomadhome with that in mind. Nomadhome’s prefabricated modules can be assembled in just two days and can be transported anywhere. The homes provide the largest possible efficient use of space and geographical flexibility when it comes to prefab homes. Transportable, extendable, and customizable architecture is something you can’t find easily. A Nomadhome can be used as your house, a lounge, showroom, temporary office, shop, or whatever you want… You’ll have your neighbors (whoever they may be that day) green with envy. Visit nomadhome.com for more information.

London Festival of Architecture 2008

 

I love festivals, they’re fun and the food is always great. Now, how do you make an architecture festival? Well, with over 600 architectural installations (including architect designed pavilions) and events that are part of London’s celebration of its past, present and future in architecture. That’s how, and that’s the London Festival of Architecture. And it’s all over the city! The event is spread across five key ‘hubs’ – Bloomsbury, Kensington and Chelsea, the City of London, the South Bank and Canary Wharf. The theme is “Fresh”, inviting visitors to “take a fresh look at London, to indulge in fresh thinking, to enjoy the fresh talent on show and the fresh air of the walks and rides.”

 

The London Festival of Architecture is a month-long programme (June 20-July 20) of imaginative events, plus great architecture for serious enthusiasts. The busy festival aims to provide thought-provoking new perspectives on what architecture is all about. I was in London last March for a small design event and loved the architecture and the spirit the city has. I can’t imagine how it must be like after adding all the festival’s energy to this already buzzing city.
