Located in an exuberant forest, facing the Anisakan Waterfall Valley, this shelter uses the traditional materials of the rural houses from Myanmar: wood, clay, bamboo and vegetable fibers.
Its design is based on natural forms transformed in articulated structures. Its interior space is organized around the bed with a wide bench for study and work.
The shelter serves as an observatory and rest area for researchers studying the biodiversity of the region.
It is still a contribution as a form of housing to Myanmar: requiring more accommodations, the shelter can be expanded with the construction of other modules around a collective courtyard. The constructive system can still be applied to larger structures and can be constructed by the population, which is already able to build their own houses with these materials.
