"Plumbing, electricity and prefabricated furniture are sustainably fixed so when you deliver it, nothing falls," said company representative Tatjana Boreckaja.

The company also offers its clients instructions on transportation as well as assembly for ease of use.

According to Boreckaja, the houses have been tested through different weather conditions and they passed, which makes them suitable as permanent homes, getaways, working spaces or business premises.

The interior features a combined living, dining and kitchen area with the open space designed to allow for a couch and dining table.

The kitchen comes with a sink and countertop that is sufficient for normal culinary activities. Next to the kitchen is a bathroom that comes complete with a shower, toilet and sink.

Upstairs, accessed by a row of stairs, offers the sleeping area, enough for a standard bed nestled below the low ceiling.
