006 Wasted Shelter
I have a balcony which I hardly use, except for storing trash. At the same time, I would like to increase my living space, but I don’t have any money to rent a bigger apartment. My balcony would be the ideal place to extend my living space. How? I investigated the informal and ephemeral character of the slums. I started to collect thrown away materials found in my own neighbourhood. Those materials created the Wasted Shelter.
Wasted Shelter is the result of a physical research on the qualities of the informal building process. As an addition on my balcony, Wasted Shelter increased my living space, which I was seeking for.
