As part of the One Small Project....

One billion squatters claim leftover spaces in cities and live in unauthorized dwellings made of locally available, oftentimes scavenged, materials.
"OneSmallProject is not about billions, millions, thousands, or even hundreds. It is not about pounds or percentages.

It asks you to think outside the fascination with powerful men, trophy buildings, and great patrons that has for too long defined the architectural profession. In its place, OneSmallProject offers an empowering agenda that encourages each of us to create small projects alongside some one typically considered powerless.

It is about one.

One person. One architect. One small project. Repeat.

It is about one because persons need assistance. Now.

It is about one because we’ve lost touch with our humanness. As said by Fillip Noterdaeme, director of The Homeless Museum: “there are more homeless people among the privileged than on the streets of Manhattan.” It is you who is without a home.

It is about one because we have much to learn from others. According to Neuwirth: “[S]quatters mix more concrete than any developer. They lay more brick than any government. . . Squatters are the largest builders of housing in the world — and they are creating the cities of the future.”
