Dry Van Trailer Housing Project

The focus of this project was to create affordable and adaptable housing for low-income families by utilizing old dry van trailers. The dry van trailers acted as a sturdy and movable base on which we designed a full housing unit complete with both on-grid and off-grid capable plumbing, mechanical, and electrical solutions. These trailers are meant to act as a transitional housing system which are able to be quickly constructed and moved anywhere, they are needed. They can operate either as a solitary unit or as part of a larger community and feature customizability in the form of a bespoke pegboard system that allows occupants to quickly and easily change out furniture or storage units and truly make the space their own.

See it in action.
