i regrettably was unable to get to the vancouver home and interior design show this past weekend. and am really crushed i was unable to see bark's all terrain cabin especially. so i thought the next best thing was to feature a few of my favorite contributors (products that were featured in the cabin). atc is a "a cabin, using the standard ISO shipping container as the basis for the structure and outfitting it totally with canadian design and technology. the result is as smart as it is efficient, suitable for a family of four and a pet to live off the grid in comfort and contemporary style. it travels by train, truck, ship, airplane or helicopter, folded up and indistinguishable from any ordinary shipping container. once it arrives, it unfolds rapidly to 480sf of self-contained, sophisticated living space with all the comforts of home".one of my favorites would have been karlin macaskill's hanging plywood ornaments (see above middle inset). macaskill is an industrial design student at the emily carr institute of art and design here in vancouver.
i would've also probably highlighted the matrio dining table by victor chan.
and very especially, the paper soft seating (left) by molo design.

If such things interest you, you might want to compare the ATC to the tiny houses by Jay Shafer (Tumbleweed Tiny House Company) or the small version of the locally designed Glide House.
anonymous - if you click on the link to karlings macaskill's site and go to her contact - you may be able to get more info from her or where she may be selling them, but i have been unable to find them myself. hope that helps
I hope that helps, Thanks for your interest. I’m a graduating Emily Carr student so the positive feedback is great to hear!
