“Not aesthetically beautiful, but this emergency relief shelter comes fully equipped to sustain life all in a nice compact box. Maximized living space at varying size, the shelter caters to any group size of people. A durable aluminum frame keeps its contents safe inside and easy assembly allows persons of any age to assemble.”



Note CNET.com just covered this… still time to enter people!

Cool! Love seeing when the small core community gets press elsewhere. Great job by all!

Why do I have to be the Belgian designer with the unusual ideas? :smiley:

I think they meant it as a compliment … :wink:

@ jlgrobe and harper432, great boards.

I see that someone else got inspired by the HESCO-system :wink: Cool!

to Yo, I was referring to the fact that the article refers to all the other designers with their respective names, but I am the Belgian designer :wink: And most of the time if Belgium is in the news it’s not good :wink: Kinda funny

Great entries :wink: Impressive overall quality

Many grtz

I know, I was just teasing… bummer, they must not have seen your full name…

I stumbled across these three websites if anyone is looking for some cool ideas:
http://www.disasterrebuildingsolutions.com/
http://www.zendome.com/

So isn’t it time to vote?

My favorite is MichaelKilbane.

The Michael Kilbane idea is very good and it was my favourite for a while.

I’d have to vote for Dylan Snow’s idea though. The idea of maintaining the community is really improtant. Maintaining the community means the community would be able to provide support for itself and facilitate the dissemination of aid.

I can’t view Michael kilbane’s image no matter what. even tried direct link but it doesn’t show up.

can anyone send me a file or attach the image for it?

thanks!

Sorry about that, dbpuyo

Here is the link to my coroflot page Michael J kilbane, Industrial Design in Ireland .The image can be found there. I will also email it over to you.
Now I guess its time to vote. Firstly I would like to say that all the designs are impressive, and it was hard to narrow it down to just one. (Well done everyone :smiley: ).

So the shelter design, I’m selecting is “The box shelter” by jurrasix (James Sloss) :wink:
Well done :smiley:
