Overviewteamupdatesworkspacecalendarfiles 

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

This shelter utilizes existing bridge infrastructure to protect itself from the elements and to enable multiplication as needed. Such an idea can be translated to nearly any corner of the world where homelessness is a social problem. Bridge Hut brings shelter to homeless citizens in their familiar environment instead of relocating them to a public space.
