The aim is to aid communities whilst creating a cyclone, resilient building typology that is research-based whilst rapidly built and inexpensive for the community. The community will, therefore, have an opportunity to build up a sustainable village improving on the sustainability goals. The idea of this programme is to create a cultural plan that looks back on tradition whilst using modern technologies. There will be three aims to help create this plan.
Learn – Build – Share Learning is the research base where it looks at traditional building vernacular techniques of the pacific island countries and the modern technologies to create a more sustained collaborative design that is a low cost, using local materials and easy to construct. The researchers will always be striving for the better. Most of the research is carried out by looking at regulation, successes, and traditional building methods to accumulate the knowledge together along with the added aid of engineers and architects around the world designing and experimenting.
