The Design
About Doonya Modulær tilfluktsenhet
Doonya er en modulær tilfluktsenhet som kombinerer et hjem og en liten butikk for mennesker uten bolig. Hver enhet måler 6 meter ganger 3 meter, noe som gir 18 kvadratmeter, og kan utvides til 40 kvadratmeter etter hvert som familien vokser. Bygget med rørformet infrastrukturteknologi, kan én enhet monteres av fire personer på fire timer med bare en unbrakonøkkel. Hver enhet har et unikt GPS-nummer, som gir en adresse og en identitet. Ytterligere funksjoner inkluderer alarm, terrasse, takhage, solpanel og regnvannshøsting.

Behind the Design
Press Kit

- Unique Properties
- A self–contained, modular shelter unit that can support a sizable individual or family and requires little maintenance.
A completely customisable, sustainable full facility that allows a family unit to be built in just four hours, by as few as four people, using just one allen key!
Every unit has a unique GPS number, giving the homeless an address, an identity; an alarm to prevent domestic abuse; a terrace for fresh air and sunlight; a roof garden with solar panel & rain water harvesting. - Dimensions & Packaging
- The size of a typical unit is 6 metres by 3 metres of total 18 sq.m. in size, however the design should be able to extend up to 40 sq.m. if the family grows. It can also include a universal sink and shower, can be quickly disassembled and relocated around the world, making it ideal for deployment to any disaster–stricken area lacking basic facilities and it also helps restore personal space and a sense of dignity for the victims.

- Production Technology
- This is where POD Structures came in with Tubelar®️ technology, a unique construction innovation that allows an entire family unit to be built in just four hours, by as few as four people, using just one allen key! Also, completely customisable, sustainable, modular, full facility and green. It can be mass–produced with a minimum of materials and is easily stockpiled, making it a versatile emergency–shelter unit.
- Design Challenge
- The biggest challenge of this project is the cost price of the modular unit and the positivity of offside construction must be possible at premises to reduce high labour and transport cost to fabricate one unit in Singapore.
- Inspiration
- DOONYA, which means ‘world’ in more than a dozen languages, is a Shop+Home that is both a living and livelihood solution for the very poor.
A Singapore-developed community service project that merges design with engineering and technology. Its sole objective is to provide a solution to the forthcoming urbanisation crisis by offering environment friendly, integrated, transient, fully-serviced and durable maker-pod-homes to those living in urban slums, war zones & densely populated cities. - Project Duration
- ALL YOU NEED IS JUST:
1
ALLEN KEY
That's all it takes to put an entire DOONYA SHOP+HOME together, when power tools are unavailable.
4
PEOPLE
An entire home can be assembled by just 4 people, with no special skills required.
8 HOURS
We can build a home from scratch in the same duration.
Anywhere or impoverished urban areas • informal settlements • disaster relief • war zones • low-cost housing projects • refugee camps • rapid deployment shelters. - Operation Flow
- Built with Tubelar® infrastructure technology,
DOONYA is a smart SHOP+HOME with groundbreaking features with
1) No eviction
An in-situ upgrade; ensures slum dwellers are not displaced
2) Transient Homes
Not permanent, hence no land titles are required
3) Flat-packed
Pre-packaged, therefore no lengthy waits, no quality cuts, no paperwork
4) Expandable
From tiny shelters to family homes, these structures can be increased as the family grows - Team Members
