Really, this looks great, but if the purpose is to create mobile, cheap housing for disasters, how do you take it down? If it's meant to be temporary (but still durable enough for a couple of years), eventually it will have to be removed, right?

Good point, the extra cost of destroying it outweighs the benefits.

Well, it's not a completely useless invention. In case of the Syrian refugees creating entire cities out of plywood and plastic it's a great help. These "tents" are much more safer than those ramshackle things they make now.

Valid point.
