(Concept sketches)"Nest" a sustainable shelter for homeless. Part-2

















These are the 6 sketches that have been narrowed down and picked from our 30 sketches this week. We picked the features of portability, inflation, durability, and comfort, and tried to combine those features into the sketches. And here we go.

  1. Have you guys thought about how they will maintain the cleanliness of wearable pieces?

  2. That's a good question Victor. Actually, we do think about that. When you think about the user's behavior, you know that there's no way to tell them "you have to clean this once a week", so we thought the effective way to solve the problem is the materials. Either strong material or replaceable material(something like cardboard). And we all know that the shelter or whatever the pieces we're going to make should be cheap enough to make and give to them.
