STRUCTURE
The Structure is a sustainable shelter that lasts throughout the duration of displacement and beyond its basic purpose as an emergency shelter.
Incremental approach
In an emergency, the robust steel framework can be clad with tarpaulin and upgraded with local material over time.
User led process
Residents can use their skills and traditions to build, which supports independence, income and a sense of control.
Localised
Can be adapted to different cultures, climates, and materials to suit each situation.
The Structure is designed for places where local building materials are available. It starts as a metal frame with tarpaulin for emergency use. Over time, walls and the roof can be upgraded with local materials and simple building methods.
The Structure can be adapted to different climates and cultures, which extends its lifespan. Those living in the shelter and humanitarian partners can customise it as needs change over time.
