Urban Hut Building

Postby Sharon » Thu Mar 14, 2013 11:12 am

Loving this project by Kevin Langan.

100 Wild Huts is an experimental challenge I’ve set myself to build 100 small survival shelters on any piece of ground that harbours enough natural resources for the build. I intend to sleep rough in each shelter for one night and blog about the experiences. I intend to experiment with the huts form, structure and materiality in the hope that in due course this site will become a useful resource for budding adventurers and outdoor enthusiasts alike!

Kevin has so far built huts at Ibrox, Pacific Quay and Dalmeny Estate...

Where would you put yours?

This is a compelling read. Great find.

I'm fairly respectful of these chaps after reading through their sleeping exploits:

I think this one might be my favourite. So neat. A proper little house.
