Chateau Chapiteau Refugee House

Many people have been left homeless because of the war. We went to Georgia (now there are many refugees from Mariupol and not only ) and together with our friends from @chateauchapiteau , we developed a rapidly constructable housing module for people in need of temporary shelter and refugees. The house is assembled from building materials collected within a 2 km radius of the construction site. The foundation is made from reused tyres; the amount of wood scraps for the frame is minimized; river boulders are used as additional protection against wind loads. The house can grow: a system has been developed to add further modules as required. Estimated cost of materials: EUR 6800.

In future, donors will decide together whom to invite to live in these huts for free - Chateau will work with different foundations, make art residences, social children's camps, etc.
