Laura Tallarida added this to An Architect Chases the Dream of Nomadic Urban Living
The aVoid was inspired by the ’70s American tiny house movement, driven by people who sought a more self-sufficient and sustainable, and less consumerist, lifestyle. This had always been attractive to Di Chiara, pictured, though he has reservations about escaping society and seeking comfort in isolation, another classic tenet of the movement. That’s why the architect designed this tiny house to feel incomplete when standing on its own. “The aVoid has no windows on its long sides. It’s a row house, so it doesn’t make sense if there are no neighbors around it,” he says. Instead, it’s a house on wheels for traveling with the aim of exploring new social and community experiences.
