A portable shelter initially built to study tree canopies and how the geometry of leaves interacts with light. I found though that this was an ideal resting place. Lightweight, portable and easy to build. It can be set most anywhere you can wrap around.

It is made from
3 plastic grocery bags (3 dollars)
2 Tie down straps (14 dollars)
1 (cut in two) Nylon strap (4 dollars)
needles, thread, etc…. (3 dollars)
(and of course access to a sewing machine)

Total : 25 dollars

A portable sleeping bag made of free tyvek postal envelopes. I am not selling these. You can easily make them yourself. I am posting them because we need more accessible experimental architectural possibilities.

Lightweight, portable and easy to build.
