The Beautiful Danish Designed Minimalist VIPP Shelter...

VIPP have been working with steel since
the 1930's when Holger Nielsen founded the company in the small town of Randers
with the sole purpose of producing
a beautiful rubbish bin.
Yes a rubbish bin. Rubbish bins were a very important item, a status symbol and certainly a way of keeping ahead of the Joneses back then, not that there were many Joneses in Denmark.
Holger was so successful with his venture, his iconic pedal bin that is used around the world  proudly takes it's place in New York's
Museum of Modern Art.
Now the design team headed by Morten Bo Jensen have taken the company's reputation to another level with this beautifully designed and manufactured prefabricated steel shelter that comes with everything except the new owners food, wine and a site for the minimalist 592 square foot home to sit on.
There's more here, here and here...
