The Boxy Lady is a portable micro cabin created by Derek “Deek” Diedricksen of RelaxShacks. Designed as both a trade show display booth and functional single sleeper, this compact structure travels to events promoting simple living, recycled construction, and tiny house concepts.
The Camping Cocoon from DH Log Cabins resembles a miniature A-frame house, creating a compact shelter suitable for camping, backyard retreats, home offices, or hobby spaces. The distinctive shape provides weather-shedding roof coverage while maintaining a small footprint.
