Concursos AG360: Emergent Housing
About Competition
Ideas Competition for the conceptualization of a modular, emergent housing model for the people displaced by disasters. The model must be adaptable to diverse contexts (urban/rural, warm/cold), low-cost, rapid implementation, and scalable. EMERGENT HOUSING will be conceptualized as a modular, sustainable housing prototype that can be rapidly implemented and adapted to different geographic and cultural contexts.
Submission / Key DatesThis proposal must prioritize local and recyclable materials, safety, and privacy, integrating aesthetic, modular architecture and construction economy, in order to offer an immediate solution that can evolve into a long-term habitable home.
This prototype is designed to be adaptable to other crisis contexts such as Tacloban (Philippines), Gorkha (Nepal), Beira (Mozambique), Lahaina (Hawaii), among others. Its modular and low-cost approach allows for scalability for international use in areas affected by earthquakes, hurricanes, or conflicts.
