Wacky. I'm not sure how it solves the housing crisis though. It's not like Namibians don't know how to build their homes, or lack the material.

The material is a carbon-sequestering concrete alternative made from an otherwise useless plant and that's what's neat about it.

I think you're totally right. It's a cool project but it doesn't aim to solve the root of the housing crisis there. Mainly colonialism, lately neoliberalism.
