Re: Homeless Emergency Shelter
What a simple idea! 50 shelters, only 50" high unassembled has massive potential for emergency use.
In three words I can sum up everything I have learned about life: It goes on.

Re: Homeless Emergency Shelter
Very smart. The only thing for emergencies I could think of would be to have a larger version for families. I would want to stay close to my kids if we ended up in a situation needing us to rely on shelters like those. For single homeless people it looks absolutely brilliant. Well done!

I like the idea, but cant get my head round the holes that the cable ties go through not letting water in?
