- At the touch of a button, these incredible homes of the future can self-deploy and build themselves in less than 10 minutes, transforming from a box into a building eight to ten times its original size.
Ten Fold Engineering's David Martyn explains the surprisingly simple design concept that makes this possible.

What if it accidentally closes while you're still in it?
You will become the painting for the next owner ;)
You'll become a nice rug
Walls get painted
I think you'd die?
It's counterbalanced, there is not enough force to crush them.
How would one store furniture, electronics, clothes or food?
Barrington Morris yeah you have to put them in after like you do after building a typical house. These get built a lot faster though
Yeah, that would be a problem. Unless you're a minimalist or Japanese.
It shows it in the video.
What happens to the furniture whenever I want to close the house in case I want to be absent for some time>
LMAO, okay sleep well, no little dreams about someone pressing that damn button while your inside and the thing self flat-packing...
Dumb Dumb i couldnt sleep in it
It's counterbalanced, there is not enough force to crush someone.
Command and Conquer would be so proud.
Good for camping for the rich.
Yup, let's go camping....I will book the cargo helicopter to pack the beans
Ill bring the bread
Honestly, I don’t think this counts as camping. This is just a house that you can set up in 10 minutes.
@@elenagibbons4719 You ruined it
Or a home for the rest?
I'm reading the comments and I think that a lot of people are missing the point. I do not think the purpose this would serve is as a portable home. This is not a fancy caravan. It is a house. The point is that typically, building a home requires a long build time involving many different people. With this, you order the home, it arrives and is built within 10 minutes. However, the home will still need to be plumbed in, fully furnished and connected to the electricity grid. That is, once the home is actually unfolded and fully fitted, it would not be easy to then refold it again. It would first require the house being emptied and the pipes and cables connecting it to the ground removed.
From the point of view of a construction company, these houses could be built in a factory and stored in a warehouse. Once an order is placed, the house is delivered to the site and is allowed to unfold/self-assemble. Definitely seems to me to be an idea that will have some potential.
Very well said.
I totally agree.
This is House can expand itself, can't agree on building itself..
Dear smarhouse,
Please remember to let the dogs out when moving. Thanks.
The transforming interior are fantastic. It doesn't have problems of elements exposure, so their maintenance are less demanding. Also, it doesn't need to work on plumbing, something that make the outdoor version only suitable for camping or disaster relief.
Can someone dub the transformer noise over this lol
John Dotson dam lol
Transformers houses in disguise
With my luck I'd be in the shower when the house decides to malfunction and squish me like a huge, naked pancake.
This is amazing one of the best things I’ve seen in using this as inspiration
Very innovative for nomads
That’s cool and all, but I’d be scared af just thinking about the possibility of it closing up and killing me...
New fear unlocked! Thanx! 😏
This is amazing. This is the future - done with the technology of the past
I'm working on a science fiction concept using this type of building. Being able to ship entire towns to right where they need to be. transporting a few hundred to a thousand such containers to a site and being able to set up infrastructure for thousands of people in a matter of hours. Containers could be houses, schools, restaurants, hospitals/clinics, research labs, greenhouses, you name it. As this company is proving, the design potential is borderline limitless,
This is actually the future
what about pipelines ?
Canceled
Excellento!! Nice Engineering ⚙️
This is awesome architecture.
This is just a gimmick. Those houses look unstable and they have poor insulation. What good is a house if it's not sealed and insulated?
@Janitor Queen this would be great for Japan because of its mild year-long climate and Japanese homes tend to be pretty fragile anyways.
There is always a start to every technology.
This channel needs more subscribers
Wow❤ Great ingenuity!
So cool I hope this realy becomes popular
Genuinely impressive
Amazing.
No doubt the negative comments below are made by builders who will be disrupted by this new application of old principles.
But for people like me who are looking for affordable housing, this kind of thing is just the beginning of a satisfactory solution to the current costly way of doing things.
If I were a builder, I would be seeking a licence to make these buildings, and sit back and watch the $$ roll in as people flock to it.
Could be ideal when setting up colonies in Mars.
I remember seeing this concept on Tomorrow's World back in the 90's.
Finally engineering that makes sense. And doesn't inherently fight itself just to ultimately eat itself alive so to speak, well done, makes one hell of an RV I bet lol
One word ..smoosh!
good concept
Well, travelling carnivals have been around for a long time, this is just more useful. I imagine these are already being used by Hollywood instead of "trailers".
What is the effect of hurricanes, earthquakes and tornadoes on these structures?
This is more attractive and more beautifull than tenfold's other portable camper projects.
I need some redstone tutirial videos about these. Do they work in bedrock edition?
Nice concept. Convenient for limited space . Can you explain the durability of this and the maintenance ,because most of the parts are moving.
Richard Murphy was already thinking about this 20 years ago
NOW THIS...THIS IS THE SOLUTION FOR UNDER-HOUSING AND SOME POVERTY AREAS RIGHT HERE PEOPLE. LOVE IT😍🤩👍🏼🖖🏽 I would so like to work on this guy’s team designing more of the aesthetics for these revolutionary structures.
Daniel Whyatt what are tou talking about- these are really expensive, and the house can’t just revert to its tiny self when someone leaves, it solves nothing, just looks cool
Expensive af
Just perfect beautiful how much it can cause one of those containers House containers
Awesooome
Transformer houses. Wow
Most critical moment.
This would be a great housing option
Wow i need me one of those
Nice editing
Nice
'Iron man' house .. perhaps 'Swiss Knife' house
In future this kind of houses mostly will be seen everywhere 🙂
I wonder how the connection work. What about isolation ? Humidity ? Electricity?
Sounds like a good concept do not get me wrong. But it's more like a concept than close to realisation.
what software was used to make the first animation
Se puede comprar una estructura como está para traerla a Venezuela,que costo tiene en la fábrica esta vivienda?
Good
3:10 change is the only Thing that is certain - nice Stuff
looks cold
What is the price?
I hope this is the future.
But what happens if its windy or a slope?
so where's the plumbing and electrical?
Price?
Wow
What I want to know is, how do you put art on the walls?
Next invent the Location's for these moving houses to be placed
What would be the cost?
What about plumbing and electrical stuff?
Next generation mobile home. When can I put my order in for a two story double wide that folds to the size of a shipping container?
Interesting
What about heat loss through the folding walls?
What happens if the thing malfunctions while the people are in there???
That's really pretty ingenuous 😏
How much do these cost?
What happens when it decides to malfunction and close when it wants to?
What if the house malfunctions and squashes you
Minary camps here in Chile for example
Amazing 😍👌 Structure! How much does it cost! 🌹🌹🌹🧀📷
2:08 Clockwork Mansion
Where do the levers go after the house is constructed?
A waste of lever?
It's a good idea but I kind of question how warm they would be in winter
Perfect for nomads
Gorgeous as a prototype but need to think about plumbing, toilet, etc.
What if there was a malfunction and it folded to closed position while your still in???
I want to see the failed videos when they were first designing this.. there must have been some good carnage videos of this self destructing 🤔
1- For transport, for use
2- hinges
3-carry
4-balancing
5-transformation
6-broader
-.-
Future woww
Glad to see Made in the UK innovation back into the 21st century 🇬🇧 ✌
What happens if it closes with you in it
Howl's moving castle or the stack from Ready player one?
ahhhhhh....lol
Solar with transitional bullit proof glass please
Interesting!... But not where you want to be living when the robots turn against us.
I’m diabetic, the robots need blood for them to live normal.
When they need to eat human flesh, they’ll come to life.
Cute idea, never gonna happen
I bet that there will be a day when people will carry their houses with their hand like a briefcase.
Nice computer game, but this is the real world.
HOW MUCH?
Hopefully the bathroom doesn't fold up into the bedroom...eeeew!
Tim Watson Drums or worse ..into the kitchen🤢
The concept is actually pretty reasonable, but this won't work in Canada. Where would you use it? The park?😮🤣🌸~
I would be contented to have atleast one of these...if I end up being homeless....🙏
If it was affordable and leads to ownership in the short term then i can see people buying it as it's way better than giving ones hard earnings to a landlord never ever to see ownership
Having said all that im guessing a series of tesla batteries would have to be installed in a location where by many of these homes can be situated nd have a plug n play system but what about garden space? Good for someone who has a plot of land but as a community how would such a change in home construction be done?
Um… yeah, I have questions…
Where does the shitter go? And what if there’s a car accident while Ralphie & Alice are schleppin’ their fold-a-house to Florida? And what if the impact of aforementioned accident causes the thing to boingggg pop open right there on the I95? How embarrassing. And what if it won’t close? What if the closer won’t close? Or closes when it shouldn’t, squishing Granny Ethel into human prune juice? And what if a hurricane comes along and scoops it up?
Other than that, pretty ingenius geometry there… 😵💫
Deceptions are here
What about the toilet?
It folds your poop down and makes smaller folding houses for mice out of it!
Portable modern commodes for the elderly are small and process waste down to a liquid that you pour away. Probably use something like that.
