The iKozie micro-home is a prefabricated home designed for one person and measures 17.25 square metres (186 sq ft).[1] [2]
It was designed by Kieran O’Donnell, a trustee of the Homeless Foundation, and Andrew Eastabrook of Eastabrook Architects.
The first iKozie micro-home was installed in the garden of the Homeless Foundation, on 29 August 2017.
iKozie Ltd was granted planning permission by Worcester City Council for a reduced number of 16 homes on 18 October 2018, following extensive reactive amendments to the original design in response to objections from local residents.[3] Construction of the scheme is anticipated to start in 2019.[3]
