Nomadic Modular Shelters

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Nomadic Shelter Fits Up To a Dozen People

— February 27, 2015 — Art & Design
The Nomadic shelter is a temporary modular shelter constructed during the course of the Salt Siida Workshop, part of a traveling arts festival on the beach of the Norwegian island of Sandhornoy. What's interesting about this shelter is that it is very compact at just 12 square meters, yet can sleep up to 12 people in reasonable comfort.

This modular shelter can also hold a fire pit in the sand, while an optional canvas roof can be installed to shield occupants from rain.

You may look at this shelter and say you wouldn't want to live there, but then again it's not really designed for permanent living. It's designed for festival goers, who are usually good at making do with less anyway.
Trend Themes
1. Modular Shelter Design - Designing highly functional and comfortable shelters that are also portable and easy to set up can provide long-term housing solutions to disaster-stricken areas.
2. Compact Accommodation - Developing and designing compact accommodation solutions can provide convenient and flexible living conditions for temporary and seasonal workers.
3. Sustainable Festivals - Creating sustainable festivals that use eco-friendly and reusable materials such as modular shelters can significantly reduce waste and carbon footprint.
Industry Implications
1. Construction - The construction industry can explore the production of modular shelters for use in emergency and disaster relief situations as well as short-term housing solutions.
2. Hospitality - The hospitality industry can benefit from compact accommodation solutions such as the Nomadic Shelter for offering eco-tourism and off-the-grid experiences.
3. Event Management - The event management industry can adopt sustainable and eco-friendly practices in organizing festivals and events, such as providing participants with temporary modular shelters instead of single-use tents.
