Unusual housing in Australia: tiny houses. But it’s cozy and comfortable

Big cities have many homeless people. Some people, through no fault of their own, found themselves without a roof over their heads, they do not lead an asocial lifestyle, they do not interfere with others. Fate pushed these people to the sidelines of life, but they have the right to a new life in their own home. In Australia (the city of Melbourne), by attracting money from patrons, it was possible to partially solve the problem of the homeless.

Portable Housing Project

In Australia, currently more than one hundred thousand people do not have their own housing and are forced to live on the street or in special institutions for temporary detention. With the help of benefactors, the Harris managed to raise several million in order to build several small houses on empty land in which homeless people can find their refuge.

Harris found empty places outside the city that were overgrown with weeds and were not of interest to builders and investors. This land was divided into small plots on which houses of 20 square meters were installed. There are kitchens, bathrooms and living rooms. Among other things, each house has front and rear verandas and a small garden.

The area, of course, is small, but people in need can get a residence permit and a permanent roof over their heads.

Prospects

Although the houses are built on unused land, a situation may arise when the territory will be required for the needs of the city. Then the poor residents of portable homes will be notified for eviction within 12 months. During this time, they will need to find a new home. However, the philanthropists hope that in this case they will succeed in finding new empty territories and moving houses there. By the way, each house is so small that it can be lifted by one crane, placed on a special platform and transported to another place. It will only be necessary to connect communications, and the small house is again ready for people to live in it.

Currently, one small temporary village is already populated, and in the near future it is planned to build several more.
