    The world needs more achitects like this man and less architect that want to be excentric artists. My college thesis was about this type of modular contructions, I develop a temporary shelter out of bambu, so the work of this man resonated a lot much with me and my views that architeture can be useful in pratical and concrete ways to society.

    With the "black box" it would be so easy to set up schools and clinics anywhere in the world. This is just amazing. It would so helpful for after disaster help.

    Shipping containers are the BEST boxes to think inside really.
    I don't think I've been disappointed yet with shipping container architecture whether it's a collapsible/modular structure in one or two containers designed to be mobile, or their use as pieces to build the skeleton of larger structures.

    Septic tanks should be mention. Around the world no sepic tanks standard. Best design for septic tanks should be like the blackwater (toilet) should be seperated from gray water( sink , Shower) and the liquified processsed from the black water tanks
    should be drain to the gray water tanks. the processed liquid from gray water tanks to the drain fields.

I had a professor that worked with students to design and build a low cost brick that filters air pollution, for example. This video is just 18 minutes of some dude bragging about his own accomplishments while trying to present his good but unremarkable ideas as if they are cutting edge...
