Ikea's flat-pack refugee shelter is entering production

So when can we buy these at the local ikea?

If my wife and I had lived in one of those for our first two years of marriage, we could have saved up one heck of a down payment for our first house.

These remind me of an architecture project to produce semi livable spaces for Tokyo homeless. The blue tarpaulin structures. I think there was a German movie cherry something or other in which a terminally ill man who travels to Japan to gets to know a girl who lives in one such structure in one of the parks there. This is bigger and perhaps more durable. But too big for a homeless person to move to a new spot, if necessary, in a hurry.

If they could marry the modularity of this with the size and portability of the blue tarp structures, this could be an option to homeless communities who prefer not to go to official shelters.

In other words, I wonder if they could take this but build a version for individual homeless people.

I'm guessing, like most people who have more resources than refugees, you and your wife would prefer living somewhere with a bathroom, indoor plumbing, and a refrigerator.

They should do a tom's shoes thing with this. We both could have a house.
