Tiny house company Vika Living based in Los Angeles has recently revealed its Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) that pops up within an hour.
Made with insulated panels, the tiny home is completely prefabricated with wiring and plumbing included and delivered flat-packed on-site, to simply unfold into position.
Vika Living co-founders Scott Kevern and Jeff Howard said:
“We’re focused on providing a flexible and economical housing alternative, without commitment to decades-long time frames or permanent structures… Vika One units unfold to set up in one hour each. No foundations or heavy equipment needed”
The 144-sq-ft floor plan comprises an open-plan shared bedroom, living, dining, kitchen area, and a hidden compact bathroom.
The tiny home with 8.5-ft high ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling feature glass wall, and a 42-sq-ft outdoor deck.
Complete with furnishings and fixtures such as double bed, table, chairs, kitchen, heating/cooling system, shower, toilet, storage units, and all hookups for water, power, and sewage.
Buyers also have the option of purchasing an off-grid model, which comes complete with rooftop solar panels and batteries, water collection and off-grid waste systems, which can all be adjusted according to site needs.
Apart from being a good fit for a home office, glamping sites, eco-retreats or backyard housing, since it can simply unfold on site and its delivery/installation costs are greatly reduced.
The Vika One is currently available for pre-order in the United States, with delivery in early 2023.
The standard model is priced at US $38,000, while the off-grid version comes in at $45,000.
Shipping fees range from $1,000 to $3,500 per unit. Vika Living also hopes to start delivering internationally to select countries by the end of 2023.
