The interior design and furniture in the Room Vehicle are immovably attached to the frame. As a user of the room, comfort is to be found in a manner that is closer to a mountain goat, a Pilates disciple or Spiderman, rolling, climbing, tumbling and wheeling over the ergonomic surfaces of the Room Vehicle. It has nothing in common with luxury, but everything with new types of dwelling and residing.
The new materials and construction method of the RV prototype (to see in hall 6) replace the classic steel or bricks and mortar of traditional buildings. Room Vehicle is first of all a room which immerses and confronts the user with new and intelligent technology, a room which fulfils new needs and desires... Something very special to look forward to at the Biennale Interieur 2012.
