Taking nature's cycle of growth and decay as inspiration, I plan to design multiple shelters and dwellings that decay over time. Using a combination of biodegradable and sustainable materials these dwellings will completely biodegrade to soil while still providing basic housing for some time.

==Project plan==
My plan is to produce a working prototype of a dwelling which can be built in full size.
# Create a working prototype
#* create a suitable structure
#* chose material(s)
# Convert the protoype to full size
#* Full size plan
#* Structural analysis
#* Aquire funding
# Build it
#* Find a site
#* Construction
