Stunning White Modular Home Inspired by Dumpster Living
Price: $89,000
Austin-based startup Kasita’s micro, 352-square-foot prefabricatited modular apartments are, in all likelihood, the best thing to ever come out of a Texas dumpster.
Once upon a time, Kasita founder Jeff Wilson was dean at Austin’s Huston-Tillotson University, where he made headlines in 2014 for his sustainable living experiment living inside a 33-square-foot modified dumpster for one year.
“It was an experiment in being part of the one percent—as in, one percent the size of the average American home,” Wilson tells Curbed SF.
Although this sounds like a stunt, the experiment did yield tangible results, sending Wilson away with the nickname “Professor Dumpster” and with ambitions to design and market the ultimate sustainable tiny apartment.
“We could end up with a house under $10,000 that could be placed anywhere in the world,” he speculated in comments to The Atlantic in 2014.
The modular home that Wilson parked in San Francisco’s Mission Bay last Friday, in a bid to attract the curious eyes of potential San Francisco buyers and builders, is not so modest: Kasita’s pre-made apartments start at $89,000 for a studio unit that variously measures between 352 and 370 square feet, depending on the method used.
