A collapsible dwelling includes a front wall assembly, a rear wall assembly, opposed sidewall assemblies, a roof assembly and a floor assembly. The wall assemblies are collapsible to be received between the floor assembly and the roof assembly, and at least one of the roof assembly and the floor assembly defines at least one recess, the, or each, recess being dimensioned to receive an appliance that is mounted on one of the wall assemblies when that wall assembly is in a collapsed configuration.
