A nice idea from Viennese Architecture students Philipp Moherndl and Matthias Lechner.
Pannier bags are great, but they're expensive and
people are nervous about leaving them on their bikes because they might
get stolen
say the two young designers.
The Packtasche is a pair of cardboard panniers that you can fold up in seconds, use for
shopping with its convenient handle, and put on your bike. We
wanted to make it as smooth as possible to switch from being a
pedestrian to getting on a bike, says Matthias, you can stop at the supermarket or in front
of the store, go inside, get a Packtasche, do all your shopping in it,
put it on your rack, and you're good to go.
And if it rains...

Aaron Maret's Beautiful And Simple Rustic Home On Wheels Is Inspirational...

It shows.
His little Pocket Shelter house on wheels made from recycled materials is an inspiration to all.
It's certainly one of the most beautiful I've seen and may well be seen as a benchmark for others to aspire to.
It's been five years in the making and the long gestation period for all sorts of reasons, lack of finance being one, does allow new ideas to form on ideas and so on. Often the best results are obtained by working slowly, it certainly gives space to find recyclable materials that will be needed.
Aaron and his partner are passionate about small spaces and simple living and ideas from treehouses and boats have also inspired the outcome of this wonderful home.

Have a look at how he's used this beautiful natural product throughout this unique space. Don't miss the cooktop bench with the angled cooker. Great design and wonderful attention to detail.
I could rave about this little house all day but I'll resist the urge.
Do look here for more information though.
Congratulations Aaron...
