The tiny home by Blade-Made is a wind turbine nacelle that reimagines how decommissioned energy infrastructure can become livable architecture. Designers at Superuse Studios collaborated with energy company Vattenfall and production partner Blade-Made to transform a Vestas V80 2 MW turbine nacelle into a fully functioning micro home. The result is a cozy, self-contained dwelling with built-in plumbing, kitchen, and living areas, all housed within the original industrial shell.
Inside, the small space includes a bathroom, seating, a kitchenette, and integrated sustainable systems like solar panels, a solar water heater, and a heat pump. Despite its tight dimensions of approximately 10 m long, 3 m wide, and 3 m tall, it meets building codes and acts as a tangible proof of concept. By repurposing sturdy, watertight turbine parts, this design exemplifies circular construction, reusing complex materials in a practical and scalable way.
