Dutch design studio Blade-Made has converted a section of a decommissioned wind turbine into a tiny home featuring a simple, wood-lined interior and renewable solar-powered electricity..

The project was designed by architect Jos de Krieger of Rotterdam-based firm Superuse, who co-founded Blade-Made to demonstrate new uses for wind turbines that have reached the end of their working life.

Superuse was one of four studios invited to develop concepts around the reuse of wind turbines by Swedish energy provider Vattenfall and the Dutch Design Foundation.

Blade-Made utilized a part of the turbine known as the nacelle - the part that houses all the technology required for its operation.

The architects realized that the nacelle`s size of roughly 10 meters long by four meters wide meant it was just large enough to be habitable. As a play on the word nacelle, they called their project Nestle

Superuse has already developed several designs using other parts from former wind turbines, which are typically decommissioned after 20 to 25 years. This inspired De Krieger to co-found Blade-Made in 2023 to help bring some of those ideas to market.

The nacelle supplied by turbine decommissioning specialist Business in Wind for this project is from a Vestas V80 turbine that was formerly used in Gols, Austria.
