Thesis (S.B. in Art and Design)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 2006. Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (p. 115-121). This thesis seeks to tackle a complex problem - disaster housing relief - from the angle of architecture design discipline and attempts to find a logical approach to solve such a problem via an in depth examination of a specific topic - transitional shelter. The project addresses three main issues in the field of shelter design: 1) the need of transitional shelters in a particular disaster situation (the October 8, 2005 Pakistan earthquake), 2) the design criteria for the shelters in this specific setting and a systematic way of evaluating shelter designs, and 3) a specific transitional shelter design that is produced using the established methodology. by Weifeng Victoria Lee.
