is the habitat designed in 2000 for art dealer Paola Clerico for her trip to the Himalayas. A mobile space with flexible characteristics ideal for open air living, the modular tent can be placed as a shelter for momentary sojourns, and if necessary it is possible to unfold the integrated rooms for a longer stay. A big kitchen can be opened for daily camp and rooms are supplied for several people and long term storage.
