All the People● 2 billion Urban Rich (US, EU etc)● 1 billion Urban Poor (slums)● 0.5 billion Rural Rich (small towns)● 3.5 billion Rural Poor (1 acre farm)

Worst standards of living are for rural poor – they lack infrastructure etc.

● US roughly 8x consumption● EU roughly 4x consumption

–(Peter Head of Arup)● Breakthrough technology on solar 

fairly certain, batteries likely, farming etc. are much, much harder

Where are we now?

Sustainability?● 9 billion people (7+ here now)● Earth produces only so much – 

overuse reduces future yield● Sustainable yield / 9 bn shares● What standard of living can you 

achive within this constraint?

a Shed – so what?● Honeycomb cardboard with 

shredded newspaper insulation● Coke­can thick aluminium outside● Or just spray the damn thing with 

concrete and be done with it● 45 sq m for $1000 to $3000● Modular reuse of components 

Page 26: Hexayurt Projectfiles.howtolivewiki.com/Electromagnetic Wave 2013 London - Vinay... · US roughly 8x consumption ... Builders want your house to be ... Tiny environmental footprint

Free Hardware● 8+ designers (H13, dome etc.)● Many documenters (Julie Danger)● http://appropedia.org as well● Thousands of builders (BM)● 2013 first year of friendly 

commercial ventures

Kill the mortgage● Builders want your house to be 

expensive – and so do banks● Homebuilders want cheap 

housing –  but not when they sell● Building is the last truely 

inefficient global industry● Hippies in permayurts already!

Building infrastructure● http://resiliencemaps.org● A simple language for designing 

infrastructure systems● Composting toilet, solar panels, 

mesh networks, biosand filters etc. for $200 ­ $500 per house

● Slowly, slowly (avoid beatdown!)

Flexible disaster relief● Ply hexayurt:$87 of materials● Tent: $350 + $100 air freight● Buy materials locally (nearest 

unaffected city) and truck in● Train local builders to make units● Money stays in the local economy

One billion new homes● Owner­build from cheap parts● Parts are reusable in new bulids● Tiny environmental footprint● But low rise = low density slums● In cities, density is what you want● So we're talking Global Villages

Stay on your land● We are landless peasants: work!● Robot manufacturing = no jobs● Land access = at least you eat● 1 acre farmers are very close to 

1.0 planets of consumption● Sustainability by ground up?

What about the cities?● Ultra­cheap midrise construction?● Personal Rapid Transit (PRT)● Packet­switched self­driving pods● 40% more urban density (no 

roads, parking lots, driveways)● http://podaris.com hiring in LDN
