Did not know you Bryan, here it is only one month later and I hear you are gone.

May you energy and ideas live on.

We at the Zaagkii Project protect pollinators like bees.

You were a hero to many.

supports uhm, structure uhm, stacks uhh.

too many uhs and uhms.....

[Cheekybarber]

No way!!!!! We're people not insects. For disaster relief only would that be good for. Not to live in permanently. Geez, don't give the government any ideas! That's what they'd love to have everyone live in. Everyone but them!

@joshandkendra still in the prototype phase,figuring out the design as we build it

many redesigns,but yes the vision is components that reconfigure in the field.creating a Safe,comfortable enclosure.

Door on one side,window other

modular beds/hammocks a place to be

whatever u can

[poopdude]

That's neat.

[joshandkendra]

I like it. I would like to see a more standardized fitting for the joints, which I assume could easily be manufactured if this style of shelter was picked up by an agency, but I could see a refined version of this structure be highly transportable and very flexible to space/time/material constraints.

Think outside the box of traditional American housing and provide people with what they *need*.

15 seconds per slide once u get behind its a slippery slope that said he is trying to explain a paradigm shift in a few minutes to a crowd of strangers.(and no ,he is not a professional actor :)) Its a shelter,pure and simple shared toilets and kitchens wired for electricity,meant for people no specific demographic people looking to put their head down and sleep. Third world to dorm room Its a way to enclose space that is energy and material efficient. both for construction and maintainance

Poor sod, he's so nervy during this. He's doing it really flat and just plowing through it hoping for the best.

[Mc8370]

Nice idea, poorly presented. Wasn't engaging at all.

How many can stack up?

What about electricity/water?

Didn't see any windows...

Easy to build? If it's targeted for poor populations can they afford it/build it themselves?

Sure it's just a prototype, but still...

[Caniid]

@Mc8370 How many are stackable depends probably on materials. Electricity and water can run through the main structures that supports the construct itself. Windows... some walls can probably made from transparent materials. Easy in the sense that it´s simple to assemble if the parts have been previously made... like the stuff you get from ikea. (Define poor population)

[Mc8370]

@Caniid Good point, but still I am skeptical about wiring and tubing through the structure of the hexagon. Poor population as in those living in the sort of housing shown at 1:15

[Caniid]

@Mc8370 Probably not, but it was never meant to be made by those who need it (maybe only assembled). As some one who as assembled a water system I have to agree that it would not be cost effective to run water through hexagon shaped structures... though I see no problem running wiring in that manner.

[nemockulous]

@Mc8370 Did you even watch the presentation? He said it would be targeted to low income housing. This isn't a final design by any means, so things like elec./water come later. Stacking height is also determined at a later point where more complex analysis can be done. This is a presentation about an idea, not a finished product.

[Mc8370]

@nemockulous I don't argue that it's an excellent idea, it's just not well developed. Low income housing of this kind should in my opinion help possibilities of amelioration, otherwise the whole concept isn't much better from the rudimentary shelters shown in the presentation. I can only see it being developed as short term shelters, like containers would be, with the only difference being that they are easier to transport, construct and expand.
