Ask a QuestionHomelessness is the tip of the iceberg of the lack of low cost basic shelter. The scope of the solution could be expanded by a new nation- wide hybrid construction method of a mass produced prefab CORE/ SITE built concept. The multiple sized hi-tech core would be able to capture space and attach to or be inserted into an existing space. It could be surrounded by low-tech walls, placed together or tilted up. The core would allow more use of land outside the range of existing infrastructure or placed as a seed to a new DIY house, clustered together in a natural disaster area.
