Description

TECHNOLOGY FIELD

[0001] The present invention relates to a nomad home (5). A conventional residential house is a non-movable component (i.e., a real estate) and includes walls, partitions, windows, and doors. The conventional house is disassembled into an outer shell (3) and an inner unit (4).

[0002] Then, the outer shell (3) and the inner unit (4) arm re-assembled to configure a nomad home (5) by a resident's preference and needs. As time goes by, resident's preference, needs, furniture wanted changes by life cycle.BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

[0003] Today, there are many types of household: 1-generation household (a couple of wife and husband, a coupled of domestic partners), 2-generation household (parents+children), 3-generation household (parents+children+grandparents), single-person household (a young person, a person working from home, etc.). The type of house type and living style people prefer vary depending on people: a house for a single, a group home, a house for urban farmers, a house for campers, etc.

[0004] In order to accommodate such diverse needs, various types of residential space, such as a house with a long lifespan (employing a variable partition method), have been proposed. In such a house, a large space is divided into small spaces by walls / partitions / windows / doors, etc. The small spaces are pre-fixed, non-movable. Thus, to change the space in response to change of the resident's preference, needs, and life-cycle, remodeling of the house is required by removing or relocating the walls / partitions / windows / doors. Alternatively, the resident has to find and move to another house.

[0005] It is a great time, economic and environmental loss not only to the resident but also to our community.

[0006] To save such loss, a residential space is necessary which can respond various resident's preference and needs which keep changing in the resident's life cycle, and can respond to changes in the residential environment.

[0007] The present invention proposes a nomad home in response to such needs. The nomad home (5) includes an outer shell (3) and one or more inner unit (4). The outer shell (3) and the inner unit (4) are not destroyed or abandoned. Rather, they can be replaced or recycled, thus minimizing the time, economic and environmental loss. Accordingly, the nomad home (5) can serve as a new form of residential house.

[0008] A conventional “nomadic life” may include (i) an outdoor camping, e.g., using camping cars, caravans, auto camping, tents, etc. and (ii) an indoor life using mobile building furniture. However, a nomad home using inner units (4), which can be freely and flexibly rearrangeable, has never been proposed before.DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTIONProblems to be Solved

[0009] The present invention is proposed to solve the above-mentioned problems. According to the present invention, a nomad home includes an outer shell (3); and one or more inner unit (4) detachably attachable inside the outer shell (3). The outer shell (3) is a non-movable component and includes (i) an outer shell floor, (ii) an outer shell ceiling, (iii) an outer shell wall connecting the outer shell floor and the outer shell ceiling, and (iv) an empty space surrounded by the outer shell floor, the outer shell ceiling, the outer shell wall, The inner unit (4) is a movable component. The inner unit (4) may be a single-component functional unit or a multi-component functional unit.SUMMARY OF INVENTION

[0020] The residential space rearrangement using the nomad home (5) according to the present invention is a new residential culture (single-family home or apartment complex) and can respond to change in living environment, change in various furniture types, and change in resident's preference and needs due to life cycle change.

[0021] The outer shell (3) can serve as a multi-purpose architectural space which can be easily transformed from a residential space to any space designed for another purpose.

[0022] The inner unit (4) is a movable component. The inner unit (4) is not discarded when one resident's use ends. Rather, it can be reused by other users and recycled in an environmentally friendly manner until the end of its lifespan.

[0023] In addition, by employing the inner unit (4), the interior of a residential space can be independently and commercially sold unit by unit. Thus, a two-dimensional floor plan can be converted to a three-dimensional floor plan in architectural terms. The degree of freedom will increase in architectural design.

[0024] According to the present invention, a conventional fixed residential space can be combined with and unified with components such as furniture, sanitary equipment, and home appliances to form an inner unit which is independently produced / managed / repaired / stored / replaced / recycled. By using such an inner unit, a new type of residential house can be created.

[0025] In the current pandemic non-face-to-face situation, the conventional fixed residential space makes residents feel restrictive and stuffy. In contrast, the nomad home (5) according to the present invention can increase the degree of freedom in design and can make the residential area more spacious.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING

TECHNOLOGY FIELD

[0001] The present invention relates to a nomad home (5). A conventional residential house is a non-movable component (i.e., a real estate) and includes walls, partitions, windows, and doors. The conventional house is disassembled into an outer shell (3) and an inner unit (4).

[0002] Then, the outer shell (3) and the inner unit (4) arm re-assembled to configure a nomad home (5) by a resident's preference and needs. As time goes by, resident's preference, needs, furniture wanted changes by life cycle.BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

[0003] Today, there are many types of household: 1-generation household (a couple of wife and husband, a coupled of domestic partners), 2-generation household (parents+children), 3-generation household (parents+children+grandparents), single-person household (a young person, a person working from home, etc.). The type of house type and living style people prefer vary depending on people: a house for a single, a group home, a house for urban farmers, a house for campers, etc.

[0004] In order to accommodate such diverse needs, various types of residential space, such as a house with a long lifespan (employing a variable partition method), have been proposed. In such a house, a large space is divided into small spaces by walls / partitions / windows / doors, etc. The small spaces are pre-fixed, non-movable. Thus, to change the space in response to change of the resident's preference, needs, and life-cycle, remodeling of the house is required by removing or relocating the walls / partitions / windows / doors. Alternatively, the resident has to find and move to another house.

[0005] It is a great time, economic and environmental loss not only to the resident but also to our community.

[0006] To save such loss, a residential space is necessary which can respond various resident's preference and needs which keep changing in the resident's life cycle, and can respond to changes in the residential environment.

[0007] The present invention proposes a nomad home in response to such needs. The nomad home (5) includes an outer shell (3) and one or more inner unit (4). The outer shell (3) and the inner unit (4) are not destroyed or abandoned. Rather, they can be replaced or recycled, thus minimizing the time, economic and environmental loss. Accordingly, the nomad home (5) can serve as a new form of residential house.

[0008] A conventional “nomadic life” may include (i) an outdoor camping, e.g., using camping cars, caravans, auto camping, tents, etc. and (ii) an indoor life using mobile building furniture. However, a nomad home using inner units (4), which can be freely and flexibly rearrangeable, has never been proposed before.DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTIONProblems to be Solved

[0021] The outer shell (3) can serve as a multi-purpose architectural space which can be easily transformed from a residential space to any space designed for another purpose.

[0022] The inner unit (4) is a movable component. The inner unit (4) is not discarded when one resident's use ends. Rather, it can be reused by other users and recycled in an environmentally friendly manner until the end of its lifespan.

[0023] In addition, by employing the inner unit (4), the interior of a residential space can be independently and commercially sold unit by unit. Thus, a two-dimensional floor plan can be converted to a three-dimensional floor plan in architectural terms. The degree of freedom will increase in architectural design.

[0024] According to the present invention, a conventional fixed residential space can be combined with and unified with components such as furniture, sanitary equipment, and home appliances to form an inner unit which is independently produced / managed / repaired / stored / replaced / recycled. By using such an inner unit, a new type of residential house can be created.

[0025] In the current pandemic non-face-to-face situation, the conventional fixed residential space makes residents feel restrictive and stuffy. In contrast, the nomad home (5) according to the present invention can increase the degree of freedom in design and can make the residential area more spacious.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING
