Hurrikane, Hochwasser, Erdbeben oder Paris Hilton. Die Liste der Katastrophen lässt sich beliebig erweitern. Wer nach solchen Katastrophen obdachlos geworden ist, für den gibt es das Disaster House.
California architect Gregg Fleishman knows how to put together a house in a hurry, and that’s just what he’s done with this DH1 Disaster House. (…) The 14-foot-square flatpack dwelling starts out as a simple stack of European birch plywood and can be quickly pieced together for nearly instant shelter without even using nails or any other fasteners. This little structure would be suitable for hurricane victims. It has a structural floor that sits 30 inches off the ground, which might come in handy if you’re building it in a flood zone. But it’s not entirely waterproof—for that, you’ll need to stretch a plastic or canvas skin around it. And, unless you don’t mind being blown away with the first stiff wind, it needs to be attached in four points to a concrete slab. [SCI FI Tech]
Problematisch dürfte allerdings nur der Preis sein: 22.000 $.
