Edgar Blazona says in the interview: "The MD 280 is my latest project and largest to date, This is my first structure to have a full kitchen and full bath. The layout came from California shipping standards. I wanted to create a dwelling that was eye pleasing and carried the overall look of my previous structures. One of my signature design details is to always have a clear or translucent corner. You can see this loud and clear in this structure. I feel that this size of structure lends its self to the need of secondary housing, vacation housing, and more importantly the need of what is now called 'granny housing' which is really just a backyard rental with all the emenities."
