Instagram/domenico__antonucci M.A.DI homes is selling flat-pack homes from just £25,000. The tiny homes can be assembled in six to seven hours. Each comes complete with kitchen and bathroom facilities, a staircase leading to a mezzanine living area, central heating, and air conditioning. Italian architect Renato Vidal has designed a new affordable living concept — flat-pack homes which start from just £25,000 ($33,000). Called M.A.DI homes, the concept could work just as easily as a bachelor pad as it could a permanent family home.

Vidal's modular houses are earthquake resistant and come complete with kitchen and bathroom facilities, a staircase and mezzanine living area, central heating, and air conditioning — and they apparently only take six or seven hours to assemble with three workers. Equally, if you're in need of some more space, you can simply buy more modules to add to your house. Giant Lego Man Costume From Cardboard.

The Global Village Construction Set (GVCS) is a modular, DIY, low-cost, high-performance platform that allows for the easy fabrication of the 50 different Industrial Machines that it takes to build a small, sustainable civilization with modern comforts.

Machines: Global Village Construction Set

We’re developing open source industrial machines that can be made at a fraction of commercial costs, and sharing our designs online for free. We are developing a lifesize, scalable, modular LEGO construction set. The GVCS in itself consists of many other Construction Sets – as we build not individual machines, but construction sets of machines. As an example, the Fabrication Construction Set component can be used to build any of the other machines. Our goal is lifetime design, and low maintenance so only a few hours of maintenance per year are required to keep any machine alive. We have built the first machine in 2007 – the Compressed Earth Brick Press. In 2014, our status of completion for the machines is:
