1985 De Markies Mobile Home


What a sweet find on this Friday afternoon.  The "De Markies" meaning (The Awning) was an entry in the "Temporary Living" competition in 1985 and was conceived as being a mobile home. On the road, it measures 78 in. by 177 in., and once it has arrived at its destination its floorspace can be increased threefold in a matter of seconds. "De Markies" was awarded the Public Prize at the Rotterdam Design Prize in 1996.
