2020 is making some of us wish that we could jet off into outer space and take a break from all the problems and challenges on Earth. While we can’t fly off for a quick getaway just yet, what we can do is find a futuristic smart home that looks just like a spaceship. [Rocket engines and terraforming kits sold separately.]
The Cube Two prefabricated home is made by Singapore’s Nestron and it has a lot of cool perks. For one, it’s all ready to move in on arrival. Second of all, it has an integrated artificial intelligence assistant. And with 263 square feet (24.4 square meters), it’s large enough to house families of three or four people.
Scroll down to check out what the outside and the inside of the sci-fi home looks like. Remember to let us know in the comments what you think, dear Pandas!

Nestron has a few core ideas that it works and builds by. They want to make affordable and eco-friendly housing that looks and feels modern. They also take pride in their engineering skills.
For example, the insulation they use means that their prefab homes are fit for all climates—from hot to cold, to everything in between. Meanwhile, the tiny houses are made of fireproof and earthquake-resistant materials. This means that you should be safe no matter where you decide to plop down your new Cube Two.
All Nestron smart houses have a fully-integrated AI assistant. You can use your voice to control most functions and the coolest part is that the AI learns your way of living over time.
The company’s values of eco-friendly affordable housing have their roots in Papua New Guinea where Nestron’s founders went in 2013 to build prefab houses for the poor. However, they were met with a lot of obstacles, including problems with local subcontractors, missing materials, and delays. Fortunately, this mission solidified the founders’ ideals: they created the company four years later, in 2017 on this foundation.
