Tata has recently announced their new project called the Nano House. This project will make it possible for people to own a house for the first time ever and do so for just about $750. Made from coconut and jute fibers, the nano house is expected to have a life expectancy of 20 years.
Normally, we dont get excited about such things, but come on, this crib costs less than a car- even less than the TATA NANO- the cheapest car in the world.
And while this little house might solve homelessness worldwide, we're not sure how the Indian folks will react. You see while most people value sense, Indians value status- its the same reason why the TATA NANO isn't flying of the shelves- because no one in India would ever want to appear to be cheap or have the cheapest car or for that matter buy the cheapest house.
