Affordable Housing in San Francisco

Ray Spaxman passes on this piece from dezeen:

Brooklyn artist Mark Reigelman and San Francisco architect Jenny Chapman have installed a wooden hut in an unusual city location – suspended on the side of a San Francisco hotel like a bird box.

The concept:

Manifest Destiny! is about our God-given imperative as modern explorers, to seek out parcels of unclaimed territory and boldly establish a new home front in the remaining urban voids of San Francisco.

Lights visible through the windows give the impression that someone is home with electricity generated from a solar panel mounted onto the roof.
