buy a banga!

A Banga shows ways in which we could live more sustainably, resource-efficiently and minimally – whether in the city on previously empty roofs or in the countryside to make better use of large plots of land. Whether as a guest room in the garden or as a vacation home at the lake: A Banga usually doesn’t need a building permit, because its floor area remains under 10m² (But beware: In nature reserves or conservation areas other rules may apply, of course!) And as a design object in a very small edition, the Banga – in contrast to the DIY store hut – rather doesn’t suffer from loss of value. In cooperation with scarchitekten we offer 2 meticulously and professionally restored Bangas for sale.
