Summary

This project proposes “Tinderbox,” a modular, portable housing system for wildfire evacuees. Inspired by the Fort McMurray disaster, it addresses shortcomings of emergency shelters by providing privacy, sanitation, and essential amenities. Easily assembled and reusable, it supports both immediate relief and long-term recovery, improving well-being during disaster displacement.
