Designer Alastair Parvin believes that the architecture and building of at least residential structures should be and can be democratized through open source model sharing. Alastair Parvin: Architecture for the people by the people | Video on TED.com This is a world where anyone can download CNC cutting machine and 3D printer programs to construct all the materials and tools needed for two people to construct sustainable housing.

It is a world I believe where students all over the world can learn by housing all the homeless everywhere. It is within reach as long as we completely rethink the current model.
