Concrete Canvas Tiny Houses

Concrete Canvas Tiny Houses (CCTH) offer a Digitally Manufactured Pneumatically Rigidised alternative to current staple of large scale digital manufacturing: Additive Layer Manufacturing and CNC Machining . Concrete Canvas is used as the main construction material for these buildings . The advantage of this material is that it is flexible. This feature is used to produce CCTHs off-site, fold them, transport them to the deployment site, inflate and harden them – have the structure up and standing in 24 hours .

NRE Terrein was selected as the site for CCTH deployment in Eindhoven . The site is strategically located within the city and provide convenient access to various pointsof-interests for potential resident demographics . All types of CCTHs (18) were placed there (81) together with outdoor furniture, vegetation and storage facilities (19) . 15

NRE Terrein is an old industrial site, hence industrial looking materials blend in well in this area . For deployment in other sites Concrete Canvas can be painted with ordinary masonry paint to achieve the desired aesthetics .
