summary |
This paper describes the context and proposal for applying digital technology in humanitarian design for remote areas of developing countries that are the most technologically challenged. It presents a case study of on-going post-disaster reconstruction in the Solomon Islands. A system of digital tools, in particular parametric modelling, was devised to optimise the exemplar design for site and project specific needs, and reduce time and cost required in the overall design and construction process. Shelters developed under this system will start construction in 2010. |
