Ming Tang’s beautiful origami-inspired Folded Bamboo Houses are intended for use as temporary shelters in the aftermath of a disaster. These shelters are constructed from a variety of renewable materials and can be folded into structurally sound shapes.
A system of bamboo poles are pre-assembled to form a rigid geometry thus allowing a range of lightweight modular structures to be quickly assembled in factories and transported to their destination. Once unfolded at the construction site, the frames are then covered by using available fabric or paper.
