dc.description | With the Mobile Dwelling Unit (MDU) project. LOT-EK proves that the possibilities of modular transformation are endless. A Mobile Dwelling Unit is created from a singular shipping container. Cuts in the metal container walls create easily expandable subunits, each encapsulating one living, working, or storage function. The MDU also takes standarized worldwide shipping into consideration, as each subunit can be packed into another, much like a Russian nesting doll. This transportable, modular, low-maintenance unit is perfect for an urban lifestyle with continuously changing needs. Made from recycled shipping containers. | en_US |
