  This is exactly what popped into my mind. I've been inside one of those, I wouldn't like to live there.

  I get motion sick looking at the outside. The inside could barely stand looking at. Cool, but not for me, thanks.

  Cube houses were radical back in the day and they are still there in Rotterdam more than 50 years later. A more recent experiment in Amsterdam is also worth mentioning: http://www.tempohousing.com/projects/keetwonen/ http://www.tempohousing.com/projects/keetwonen/ This is basically a project where they built cheap student housing using pre-fabricated container sized units for a 1000+ students. Apparently, the company behind this, Tempohousing, has been running projects around the world building temporary housing using shipping containers for refugees, homeless people, and other use cases, etc. There are a few more companies doing similar things at this point.
