Project Details

This design proposed a moveable partition and furniture system for transitional homeless shelters. The inspiration was the wood pallet, often recycled as building blocks by homeless individuals. Using environmentally sustainable materials, the system creates inexpensive, quickly assembled, minimal dwelling spaces within existing buildings. Natural daylighting, sound absorption, a lively color scheme, and easily personalized spaces were achieved.
