hillside has collapsed. This response not only exacerbates the runoff that contributes to the landslides, but also creates a scar that erases any other possible use of the space. Bevins proposes an inexpensive, portable, modular structural system that can be deployed by the residents themselves. By giving residents control over the design of their environment, the result can respond to the specific needs and contexts of each situation. This approach recognizes the power of the self-‐built process, and uses design to shape the process toward a better outcome.
