The Plús Hús (pronounced "Plus House"), a home and living solution originally developed to combat LA's housing crisis, this "home in a box" concept is an excellent example of green living and carbon footprint reduction!

In short, it's a minimalist's dream!

Developed by design firm Minarc, the Plús Hús was created to enact thoughtful spaces and meaningful solutions to wasted space by allowing homeowners to add extra living spaces to their property. 

Their story reads:

"Plús Hús is a simple, efficient, multi-purposable structure design to let anyone easily add an affordable, environmentally responsible space to their property that minimized wasted energy and environmental impact."

The Plús Hús is a full package deal for any homeowner looking to add additional living or working quarters to empty or unused additional yard space, granted they have an additional 20 square feet lying vacant within their lot setting.

Below are a collection of gathered interior and exterior shots of the Plús Hús in action.
