http://hexayurt.com http://hexayurt.com is our approach - open source design too (well, patentless-and-published, rather than "in a patent pool" so technically it's public domain.) The key is thermal rejection. Sandbags absorb the energy slowly, so it's thermal buffering. Hexayurts have a shiny outside, so they just reflect the heat off into the ground. Thermal performance is surprisingly good. We're talking to the Netherlands Red Cross about field testing right now (I just came back from a meeting today.) The other thing we do is infrastructure, and you can read more about that here: http://files.howtolivewiki.com/TIDES%20-%20Hexayurt%20Infrastructure.pdf http://files.howtolivewiki.com/TIDES%20-%20Hexayurt%20Infras...
