Temporary rescue unit   (A' Social Design Award in 2016)

Cabin in case of earthquakes, floods, natural disasters, tsunami; Able to adapt to two positions depending on the strength of the outside sinister, padded to avoid injuries. Location GPS connected to a seismic alert in addition to backup system alert. The shape resembles to a capsule which in addition to distribute the impacts, it is anthropometrically suitable, has a found reinforcement, similar to an assembly that will prevent the concentration of the impact on a single point. 

The difference of this project is the easy adaptability to every environment in addition to the analysis of each specific circumstance in the world and its different form of rescue, in which improvements were observed and can be implemented both in security and anthropometry. Safeguarding its occupier against mass of water, debris, flashes of electricity

Investigating the processes of rescue we facilitate the task of being found with different implementations regardless of whether situations, places and distances. Made of steel and pressure of water and weight of debris-resistant reinforced plastics, it has a main entrance as well as a rescue access in case of being trapped in the rubble; its color is reflective, Windows made of transparent polycarbonate and its cover phosphorescent to be more easily located regardless of the time or the site of the disaster. 

The capsule will register the conditions of what had happened and which actions to take depending on the type of disaster to opt for a continuous or intermittent use of the system. It has food supplies, air purifier and an independent oxygen container, audible and optical alarm system and Backup batteries and Fire-resistant film.

The responsibility to observe nature and fateful disasters show that world population was not aware of the deadly reaches of earthquakes, tsunamis, fires, avalanches, floods. In Mexico in the earthquakes of 1932, 1957 and 1985 it was observed that many buildings were destroyed, emblematic buildings the same than housing.
