IKEA’s award-winning flat-pack refugee shelter

The Design Museum in London has awarded IKEA the Beazley Design of the Year for its new, flat-pack refugee shelter. The shelter is made of recycled plastic and can assembled in as few as four hours. It can house a family of five and includes a solar panel to power lights and charge devices. Thousands of units have been produced and the map below shows where they are being put to use.
