Problem

People in informal settlements need architects the most, but they cannot afford them. It is a world, where people have shortage or lack of food, energy, water, and waste management.

Architectural Response

The FEWW Core is a universal flexible pod that encompasses a sustainable system of food, energy, water, and waste management. It is to be deployed in informal settelements or in times of societal crises. However, in response to different climates, the pod can be modified to each context it would be situated in. The FEWW Core houses service programs, which include a bathroom, a kitchen, and a flexible space with storage that would impact people and places differently due to people’s needs and cultures. Reacting to different cultures, the core is designed as a skeletal structure that provides inhabitants a place to design themselves and add in their own identity to.

Criteria

This project is applicable to different sites because it is a prefabricated, compact, low cost pod that is easy to transport and to install. It is flexible enough that it can stand on its own, can be placed and built around, or be plugged into an existing dwelling.

The FEWW Core is a universal flexible pod that encompasses a sustainable system of food, energy, water, and waste management. It is to be deployed in informal settelements or in times of societal crises. However, in response to different climates, the pod can be modified to each context it would be situated in. The FEWW Core houses service programs, which include a bathroom, a kitchen, and a flexible space with storage that would impact people and places differently due to people’s needs and cultures. Reacting to different cultures, the core is designed as a skeletal structure that provides inhabitants a place to design themselves and add in their own identity to.

Criteria

This project is applicable to different sites because it is a prefabricated, compact, low cost pod that is easy to transport and to install. It is flexible enough that it can stand on its own, can be placed and built around, or be plugged into an existing dwelling. 10 Criteria questions for existing conditions 1. What is the CLIMATE condition? 2. What is the FOOD source? 3. What is the WATER source? 4. What is the ENERGY source? 5. What is the WASTE MANAGEMENT method if there is one? 6. What is the important aspects of their SHELTER? (Form, Materials, Insulation, Ventilation, Fenestration) 7. What is the means of TRANSPORTATION? 8. What are the INDUSTRIES? Income sources? 9. What is the CULTURAL VALUES? Individual vs Collaboratively / Community? 10. What is the CONSTRUCTION + INSTALLATION process?
