<< Horizon House >>
Horizon houses are small, light, compact homes with basic furnishings, aimed for ad hoc use in disaster areas. They are a cost-effective replacement for commonly used emergency tents.
These light Horizon houses are ideal for rapid transportation by air into devastated regions, and can be erected quickly without any special tools (IKEA principle).
Once up, these shelters offer good protection against cold weather, rain, snow, storms, and dust.
Horizon houses are attractive because they are:
- Cheaper than tents
- Safe to stay in during bad weather conditions
- Easy to transport and erect
- Earthquake safe
