Monash, Melbourne, dorm

Image
  Student Accomodation at Monash University, Melbourne, Australia See the picture of the floor plan. It is a test to do just four rooms full of cans. ** I think that alternating rooms of cans with inhabitable rooms might work very well. As I have mentioned elsewhere, doing floors 1, 3 and 5 might work. But alternating rooms might be even easier. And if the alternating rooms approach works, then just keep on extending it room by room. Now….. you can always try doing all of the floors, but with rooms. And it might work super powerfully. And you can do the whole building. This approach means that maybe you can do the whole building piecemeal. ** Two more pictures: The first one is just cropped better. The second one is a version where it has been extended throughout the whole building. **** **** Another place, unrelated: It is in India. It is lovely professional university. Just do every second room like the pattern shown just above. Or every second floor. Maybe it works.

East Germany

Apartment in Highland, Indiana

  Just imagine putting a bunch of loose, clean, lightly crushed aluminium cans into the top and bottom floor of this apartment building. You could live in the middle floor. Note: this is still a work in progress! It is not a done deal! It is still a skunk works! It is actually two buildings on this property. Maybe you can get six apartments from the first building, and ten from the second. Maybe that is the “yield”. And these are normal homes, built in the 60s and renovated and tidied up multiple times.
