Emergency shelters need to adapt to a world where crises are increasingly frequent. Hope on Water proposes a foldable, stackable, and reusable micro-living unit designed for any emergency where temporary housing is needed—whether after an earthquake, wildfire, or flood, on land or water. It is a resilient shelter for an uncertain world.
