Seedpod

The ‘seed’ holds all that is essential for life. This project proposes the seed of housing, the essential elements needed to live with dignity and independence in the modern world. It has the potential to revitalise suburbia in Aotearoa and provide disaster relief for Pacific Nations.

The ‘pod’ is the envelope built around the seed, constructed from local materials to create an architecture that is local and of its people and place. This approach ensures a light touch and local sensibility. The result is a housing solution that is better for the planet, off-grid, and independent of centralized infrastructure.
