Module+Ar Shelter

LOCATION & CONCEPT
This is a design for basic, flexible, and re-useable shelter. It is intended to help the population of gypsies and homeless in New Belgrade, as their ramshackle communities are being removed to make place for new apartment blocks and infrastructure development.


As families are losing their only home, temporary shelters are a necessity.

DESIGN & MATERIALS
Structure is made of re-useable galvanized steel frame, and rigid formwork panels that serve as insulated wall units. Both, frame and wall panels can be made by the same manufacturer, and brought to site as 'kit of parts' ready for assembly.

Roof of each unit is accessible and is intended to serve as a small roof garden.

FLEXIBILITY & PLANNING
Each shelter can be a stand alone unit, or arranged in alternating rows, where front patios can double as elevated walkways. In this case, shelter does not have to be a stand alone piece, but form a small community, with living quarters connected by a common structure.
