After the devastating last few years of tsunamis, earthquakes, and floods, it is important that emergency housing be designed that can sustain survivors.  Shelter that is easy to deploy, affordable, and durable is very much needed for potential future emergencies.

To that end, the people at IM Design introduce us to Unit 0322,

Once initial needs are met, such as providing a safe shelter, the home owners can personalize their containers at their own pace and budget – adding a window here or there, painting the interior and eventually purchasing the simple affordable exterior cladding and pitched roof we’ve designed.  The concept is to provide stabile growth and allow the home owners to transform the container into their home.

Besides this, I also like the In-habit designs that can be shipped immediately… particularly the tent and the cocoon.  The cocoon for shelter until “help” arrives and the tent for safety while areas are being rebuilt.

I’m glad there are people looking out for us…
