- BasilPH 3y agoSyd Mead did the designs for Blade Runner and Tron, and absolute legend.
- hn_throwaway_99 3y agoGotta say, I'd live in that steel modular house in a heartbeat.
- csours 3y agoThere's a reason that house isn't pictured in the snow.
- genman 3y agoI can be insulated. People have built small houses from marine containers for long time.
- hn_throwaway_99 3y agoDon't build it where it snows then. I love Eichler homes, but there is a good reason all of them (as far as I know) were built in California. With big walls of glass and thin, flat roofs, their insulation is pretty horrible. But their design actually probably saves energy given how they encourage indoor/outdoor living in temperate climates.

- fudged71 3y agoYou’re telling me the Stanford torus space colony that has filled my dreams for my entire life was propaganda for US steel?
- marcosdumay 3y agoAnybody since the 70s designing those radial supports out of anything that isn't a polyester isn't paying attention.
- scotty79 3y agoStarships in After Earth have very cool designs with a lot of threads and fabrics and membranes instead of rigid steel.
