Unfortunately NOT an iHouse (just a plain old motorised Suitcase) but the iHouse COULD look funky like this..
One of our presenters recently moved house and it reminded me of the fun and joy that
moving is…they say that moving is stressful second only to getting a divorce. Having
moved house about 20 odd times in my life, to be honest I’d rather have the divorce!
Lets face it unless you’re a particular glutton for punishment a divorce happens only
once in your life and after all the tears, screams, bitterness and destroying of each
others most cherished possessions the thing is done with once and for all. Ok you
might have kids to worry about..but they will grow into teenagers one day and want
to kill you anyway.
With the uncertainty of housing being the way it is these days (even buying a house
does not guarantee absolutely you will not have to up-
its something technology developers need to be investigating. Forget about the iPhone 5
with an extra button and 0.000383 more battery life per hundred years; why not start
developing the means to fit a whole house into a suitcase. “Oh Dear its time to move
again” press a button on the suitcase and all your worldly goods furniture and all
compress themselves inside into a nice easily carried piece of luggage.
Ok there would be some teething problems (I’m sure you would need a crane to lift
the first couple of models!) but after the bugs were ironed out and we got the iHouse 4S
they’d have it worked out into something that made a real difference to moving.
Of course you could argue that some people do indeed move with a suitcase quite
regularly, in fact they live out of one..but what I am talking about is a proper house full
of furniture and all those dust gathering nick knacks that make up a persons living
environment (you know the type of thing..op shops are full of them from deceased
estates). I’m throwing down the gauntlet to these high tech Asian countries that come
out with amazing things we never realized we needed until we had them and can’t now
live without them. Lets have the iHouse by Christmas.
