Regrowth Pod - 1:1 Architects

'1:1 Architects have been working on an important project in the Victorian bushfire zone (Australia). The Regrowth Pod is a permanent, cost effective housing unit made of prefabricated contrete. The self-contained pods can be delivered directly to the affected site and used as a habitable building while residents rebuild. The units can be incoprorated into the new home’s design.'

“The robust pre-fabricated concrete structure has been designed to be built upon, but in the short term acts as a habitable starting point for the building of a new home. The units can be prefabricated, delivered and connected to services rapidly allowing families to begin the process of re-building without displacement from their communities.”
