Do you know something more beautiful than open spaces? Summer is over, but there is a great desire to be outside, around a bonfire under the stars. We have seen solutions for camping, small and large: today there is one that is both elegant and practical, very practical. Snapshot, I dare say. Gentlemen, here it is Quite Lite Quick Cabin.
Quick Cabin is a lightweight modular cabin made of durable plastic that requires one simple screwdriver for assembly. The express cabin measures 3 meters by 3 meters (10 feet by 10 feet) with a height of over 2 meters (7 feet). Most adults can stand on it with ease.
Each of the Quick Cabin's modular components weighs just over 10 kilos (less than 30 pounds). The entire instant structure is light enough for one person to assemble. The overall appearance is a bit reminiscent of the habitats of Star Trek, or the rarefied environments of “2001: A Space Odyssey”.
An instant home to carry around
In the time it took years ago to mount a Canadian, today we find a spaceship. This is thanks to the panels printed in low density polyethylene, light but resistant, even to UV rays. Each panel is then filled with insulating foam (but mushrooms would be better), making it perfect in both hot and cold temperatures.
As in children's constructions, special threaded inserts in the panels allow you to easily install furniture such as folding chairs or tables. And that's not all: the “instant” cabin is also equipped with unbreakable acrylic windows that can be opened with a push handle, letting in the pleasant outside breeze.
And the roof? Durable aluminum with a triple layer system that incorporates vinyl, dacron and nylon for UV resistance and optimal insulation.
An intelligent use of plastic, but ...
For its modular cabin Quite Lite uses only materials such as polyethylene and ABS plastic that are safe and free of toxic chemicals. A screwdriver, as mentioned, and two hours of time are enough. However, the timing on the disposal of plastic is lacking, and more generally I would prefer alternative materials.
Anyway, it's this water here, that guy would say. The price? Between 7000 and 8500 euros, not bad for a second home to take with you: there is also a lighter version, all to be towed, for the modest sum of around 5500 euros.
