Sustainable housing prototype Sydney / Australia / 2012
22
In a world increasingly challenged by both man-made and natural
disasters, Grid has been designed as a sustainable housing prototype that can be configured to suit almost any climate or orientation and can be readily and cheaply transported to diverse and remote locations around the globe.
Arriving flat-packed, Grid can be assembled quickly and has the potential to make a significant difference when applied to a range of medium to
long-term housing solutions, it could also provide immediate solutions to
industry as it moves to frontier locations. Most importantly, by providing
refuge and security for families and communities in crisis, Grid can give
back to societies in need everywhere.
Beyond emergency relief, Grid is a flexible module of space that could be used as a holiday house, a remote research laboratory, even mining
accommodation.
