MicroIntervention: YETA / Lab Zero

© Alessandro Gadotti
Italian architect FlavioGalvagni brings us Yeta, a completely off-the-grid prefab structure that is made almost entirely out of glass and wood.  It resembles the stacks of tree trunks that typically dot Alpine pastures and forests.  The base model "features a mini-kitchen and a mini-bathroom with shower. The wooden shell is insulated and the glass has a thick double layer to ensure warmth in the winter. Its flexible design means it can be fitted in different ways, according to need. Yeta also comes with a mini-photovoltaic system that frees it from the electrical grid. It measures 3.8m x 4.4m and is 3.3m high."(1)
