The Mobile Hospital by Kukil Han is a conceptual [solar-powered hospital](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jawaher-boston-medical-district) designed specifically to help victims of natural disasters. The Mobile Hospital has the look of a shipping crate and is designed to be carried into remote areas via helicopter.

The shipping crate look of this hospital is intentional as it helps make [aerial transport](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flying-eye-hospital) easier. Once on the ground, the Mobile Hospital folds out to become a three-chamber first-aid facility complete with rooftop solar panels that provide power in a pinch. Han has wisely designed multiple Mobile Hospitals, with each unit functioning as a different part of a normal hospital. Additional units include features such as an x-ray room, morgue and patient consultation center. A hospital such as this could help save many lives as poor medical care often adds greatly to the death toll immediately following a natural disaster.
