New Haiti Villages

More about the book

This booklet describes Steven Holl Architects' design of a prototype for rebuilding Haiti after the devastating earthquake in 2010. This proposal focuses on the construction of "Dense-Pack Villages": small communities of two hundred people with homes constructed of concrete recycled from the rubble and built by local labour. The Dense-Pack homes have a low energy footprin, each village has a solar-powered desalination plant to provide fresh water, and the houses' roofs contain photovoltaic panels to generate electricity
