Saving For a Space Ship Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 The Vostok Cabin Dutch studio Atelier Van Lieshout have created a mobile, indestructible dwelling with an armoured shell. Huge change is no longer in the past or future but in the present. Our society as we know it and have known to be safe is fast-changing.

scuuzeme Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 The Vostok Cabin Very With the quality of that welding I'd say it very far from indestructible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matroskin Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 The Vostok Cabin Very Hope it's _not_ airtight or its owner will not have enough time inside it to fully enjoy the new property BTW, the original Vostok spacecraft was of totally different shape and size http://www.spaceistheplace.ca/vostokphoto.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDW Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Alternatively you could purchase this rather tasteful, and equally useless, light fitting from the same 'creator' http://www.dezeen.com/2009/10/15/furniture-ii-by-atelier-van-lieshout-at-carpenters-workshop-gallery/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darwin Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 No vase, no twigs, hopeless. Quite so. What on earth were they thinking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeepLurker Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 With the quality of that welding I'd say it very far from indestructible. It's a work of art commissioned by a museum. You plebs are not supposed to make any comments. Sadly, you do not possess either the intellect or the culture to do so. The only input that is required from you is to hand over the dosh so that these Übermensch can create even more of these Deeply Significant Art Installations.

Saving For a Space Ship Posted December 18, 2010 Author Share Posted December 18, 2010 (edited) No vase, no twigs, hopeless. Here's the proof that if you overdo it with the twigs, your house ends up looking like a giant turd.

Tiger Woods? Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 They seem to think it is nigh on indestructible, yet it looks to me like a very small HEAT round would do the job nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wherebee Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 They seem to think it is nigh on indestructible, yet it looks to me like a very small HEAT round would do the job nicely. or even a big hammer to knock those door pins out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Sacks Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Get inside, shut the door and wait for the condensation to drown you. Why is it that arty types can't weld for $hit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin Allegro Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Just drop a grenade down the chimney. CLEAR. On to the next. If it's supposed to be mobile how exactly does it move? I'd like to see it being towed out of war-torn European capital on a lorry, with the driver saying 'let me through, I'm an artist!' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just realised that 'Atelier Van Lieshout' may be an alias of Erics' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
