На конкурс принимаются идеи по созданию быстровозводимых приютов для людей, пострадавших во время стихийных бедствий. Поскольку множество смертей происходит не во время катастрофы, а в течение 48 часов после нее, укрытия должны быть пригодными для оказания медицинской помощи, защищать от непогоды и других негативных факторов. Участвовать в конкурсе могут все желающие.

For this challenge, we focus our attention on natural disasters by looking at the concept and definition of shelter in their immediate aftermath and by posing the question: how can architecture and design help protect, shelter and save lives when they strike?
Natural disasters kill thousands of people a year. Typically, the biggest killer isn’t the actual event itself, but the hours following the event. Often, it is the lack of adequate shelter – a basic human need to survival – coupled with the obliteration of infrastructures and services and the lack of provisions, which make the 48 hours post-disaster a critical zone for the victims: a determining factor between survival or death.
This is where our competition steps in as we ask you to design ‘Shelter 48’: a guardian angel, a protector, and an emergency life-support system to be deployed rapidly after natural disasters strike.
There are no right or wrong answers, just endless possibilities in the pursuit of excellence and design-led innovation. Let your creativity go wild and enjoy the process! We really look forward to seeing your fantastic proposals.
