Project Performance
In partnership with Block Solutions and Yayasan Classroom of Hope Indonesia, we built a permanent, environmentally sustainable, and earthquake-resistant Block Home. The construction turnaround was very rapid, completed within a total of just six days, plus one day for transport. This Block Home was constructed and deconstructed twice before arriving at its final destination, demonstrating the versatility of the materials. The local building team used their newly learned skills in constructing buildings using the Finnish Block technology. The project management for this project was very efficient, with the project coming in under budget.
Environmental sustainability was a high priority for this project. The Blocks used to construct the house's walls are carbon neutral and produced from 50% recycled materials and 50% bio-composite materials. Other building materials were sourced locally or repaired and reused where possible. The Blocks are earthquake-resistant and certified to last 100 years.
The Hariadi family now has a permanent, comfortable, secure, and weatherproof home to live in, which allows them to feel a sense of ease and wellbeing. The plumbing in the bathroom and kitchen allows the family to live in a sanitary environment to help prevent illness and disease caused by unsanitary living conditions. As this is a private family home, The Hariadi family is responsible for maintaining the home.
