The project entailed the design and construction of a small housing unit in the
informal settlement Mamelodi, Pretoria, South-Africa. The design fills the gap
between informal and formal housing. South Africa has 2700 informal
settlements with millions of inhabitants living in substandard conditions. Many of
these informal settlements dont have water supply, electrical connections or
storm water removal systems. Most housing structures built in informal
settlements are built from zinc sheets and unsafe structures. It is a big challenge
to erect formal housing for this big mass.

The Pod is a solution within the informal context. Its aesthetic still presents itself
as a zinc building, but its thermal and environmental performance is that of
formal housing. It is prefabricated and erected in minimal time, which provides
the opportunity of mass housing solutions.

The unit is also completely off the grid which enables the unit to be placed on
site where infrastructure isnt available. Its shape is efficient as it provides
external shading, eliminates complex corner details and external seating. The
structure is suspended from the ground to preventing flooding and waterproofing
issues.
The structure is equipped with a PV panel that charges a battery unit. This
system powers 4 internal lights, 2 external LED strip lights, and a 12V charger.
The surrounding area doesnt have any electrical supply. The unit is fitted with a
skylight, which saves energy on lighting. The gutter is connected to a 1000L
water tank. Water supply is scare in the area and many people have to transport
their water in buckets to the informal homes. Mamelodi has a high rainwater fall
rate in the summer.

The tank water is used for subsistence farming and washing. The composite
wall consists of and exterior zinc layer, a Sisolation layer (reflective foil material),
an Isotherm layer and an internal plywood layer. The informal homes in the area
are built of zinc only walls (extremely cold in winter, and extremely hot in
summer).
The walls of the unit have a better thermal performance than a double masonry
wall. All the edges and corners are sealed with rubber strips. The window and
skylight are also custom made, with a double Thermoclear skin for optimal
