Globally, there are millions of homeless people in urban areas, and finding a sheltered place to sleep can be challenging.

Distributed by government or charitable organizations, “The Shack” is a viable solution to the immediate needs of the homeless: portable, lightweight, low-cost, and easy to assemble.

The expandable honeycomb core isolates against the cold ground and can easily be replaced by the user. Surrounded by a waterproof fabric, it is easy to stow into the accompanying bag.

Beyond keeping its occupants warm and dry, the aim is to provide a feeling of security that is hard to get while sleeping on the streets.
