Home Shelter

This is a site for families to come and recover from disaster that they faced. The main building in the middle is the Welcome Center where families or individuals can sign-in. There are rooms to meet medical needs, a room for food, a room for physical needs that consists of non-food items such as pillows, blankets, tooth brushes, bathroom supplies. The two narrower buildings in the back are the living spaces with individual rooms for people and families. The building on the left represents the basement that is underneath the Welcome building and living spaces. The Basement has storage rooms that hold extra supplies, medical, blankets pillows, foods and equipment. The basement also acts as an emergency shelter for natural disasters, providing the square footage and structural integrity to support the living spaces in the rooms above.

The buildings offer a safe place and an area where families can be close together, and have access to things that they may need after going through a disaster. A safe place to recover until they have an opportunity to rebuild their lives and homes.

Step one was trying out different designs that could work and beta testing the different buildings and designs. Next was adding the rooms and door ways that would allow easy access with the ability to grow quickly in square footage depending on the needs.

Step two was working on adding doors and windows with a size of 36"x48". With a way to also enter the storage basement.

The Third step was finishing the rooms, pathways and putting on the roofs.
