Industrial designer Altamash Jiwani's Blocks House is for poor and underprivileged, allowing them to have a safer and more secure way of life. The eco-friendly abode is made from lightweight recycled polyethylene and polypropylene, materials which make the home durable and cost-effective.
The Blocks House can be easily assembled to any size. Another useful feature of Blocks House is that it can be easily dismantled and carried, making it portable and functional at any location.
