Mobitecture – Habitat on the move

Mobitecture – Habitat on the move

PREMISE

‘To live is to travel.’

Humans are nomadic by instinct.

In the broader evolution of humankind through time, the notion of settling down to make home and hearth is relatively a recent phenomenon that has created more problems than solved for the species.

Humans have survived in spite of many forms of climatic events, natural disasters, disease, and epidemics visiting us, making life and living fragile and impermanent.

This may often be resulting in the total extinction of settlements, forced migrations, and the need to make fresh beginnings.
