Balconies wrap around parts, as well as giant windows, and the body is made from constructed from recycled glued, laminated timber with a recycled aluminum hull. Inside the 1,000 sq ft building, measuring 12 meters across and 4 meters high, is a sleek living space with a “sophisticated system of internal natural micro-ventilation and air conditioning.” Another interesting thing to note; if you don't want to use this place as a living space it can be altered to function as a noffice space, lounge bar, restaurant, shop, or exhibition space. Very cool environment. Here it is, from outside, at night

Of course, technically, EVERYTHING is "recyclable." The trick is, that most stuff isn't CHEAPLY recyclable.
