Pop-up campers have come a long way in terms of comfort and built-in technology, but for the most part the design has remained unchanged. Of course, it was only a matter of time until someone came up with something new and exciting and in this case, it could change how people look at their "home away from home."
I guess calling it a pop-up is slightly misleading, as it expands outward rather than upward, but it is interesting nonetheless. Once parked the Mobile Mini House unfolds, much like a Japanese Hand Fan, and covers a full 252 degrees. When opened, you can live comfortably knowing you have a bathroom, bedroom, kitchen, office and living room at your disposal.
The rooms are divided by a system lightweight walls that slide along a pair of tracks laid into the floor. The individual components of each room are either folded to save space or stored somewhere that can be easily accessed during set-up. Once fully extended and everything has been arranged to your liking, a membrane can be stretched over the entire thing to keep the bugs and weather on the outside.
The Mobile Mini House is still in the design phase and may never be anything but a computer rendering, but should it be produced I would be very interested.
