Emergency relief roofs that origami-fold flat, then expand to cover 400 sq ft — collecting drinkable water as rain falls.
Relief workers pull a folded package from a truck, watch it telescope and unfold like magic into a full shelter roof, and immediately see water begin to flow from biomimetic gutters into collection tanks. Refugees have shelter AND drinkable water within an hour of arrival.
Three breakthroughs that change emergency response
Compressed to 6" thick for transport, then expands ladder-style to cover 400 sq ft in 15 minutes. No tools required.
Palm-leaf textures maximize rainwater collection while Venus flytrap-inspired gutters automatically capture and direct every drop.
Shelter AND clean water in one package. Integrated storage tanks hold 500 gallons — enough for 100 people for 3 days.
