Emergency Shelters
Design
Lattice shelter can be an eligible solution to relieve emergency housing crisis in conflicted areas around the world, as it is low cost, transportable, easy-to-assembly and stackable.The shelter aims to provide a housing solution for people displaced from their homes due to natural disasters and other conflicts. The form developed through spatial lattice experiments with folding, stackable, lightweight structures.
Experiments
Starting the project lattice shelter was a stackable, folding, lightweight structure with advantegous geometrical characteristics.“By 2030 an estimated 100 million people worldwide are homeless and one in four people live in harmful conditions that to their health, safety and prosperity.Access to housing is a precondition for access to employment, education, health, and social services. In order to address the current housing challenges, all levels of government should put housing at the centre of urban policies by placing people and human rights at the forefront of urban sustainable development.”UN Habitat
Sustainability-focused
Our system can be enhanced with solar panels, which can be seamlessly integrated into the design and utilized as the roof of covered-open spaces
Layout Details
The joints enable various layout possibilities. Connected to each other in multiple ways we can create huge networks from the shelter units leaving in between spaces open if necessary.
Some columns are fixed and screwed together. The upper and lower movable parts are attached with pivot joints for flexibility, snapping into position when opened. The roof and sides are weaved through with fabric and the top is tilted for rainwater collection. The design is ready made and can be assembled on site without any professional knowledge.
