Temporary dormitories
a.gor.a Architects
Temporary dormitories are short-term sleeping quarters built with locally-available materials.
Temporary dormitories are designed by a.gor.a architects to provide temporary shelter for 25 occupants. The design specifications are highly adjustable to the locally available materials and climates and the overall design intended to be merged into the existing communities. For its manufacturing bamboo and thatch are used for walls, floor, and roof, which are expected to last over two years without any previous treatment. The recycled timber used for the boarding houses is polished, de-nailed and sawed down to size.
