For the homeless, having a place to store your stuff is a first step toward regaining a normal life. When applying for a job or going to work you carrying all your belongings just increases the difficulty.
By creating places to store their belongings the homeless can begin to reintegrate into society.
Architecture for Humanity, along w/ AIA Minnesota created this modular design for wide distribution. We will be building a prototype this summer. Let us know your thoughts. Improve our designs.
We'd love to hear what you think...
