Push a button and the sides of this 8-foot by 20-foot shipping container fold down to reveal a studio apartment.

The furniture and fixtures are all attached to the floor and walls so everything miraculously stays in place.

One wall holds a double bed and another a bathroom, complete with a full size bathtub. There's also a living room, kitchenette and dining area.

For now, the Push Button House is more of a showpiece for architect Kalkin, who also designed the 12 Container House and the Quik House for his company Industrial Zombie.
