This project creates collaborative outreach centers which solve some real world issues. By bringing together existing service organizations side-by-side the needs of their recipients are met more effectively. The designs incorporate the most advanced technologies available in energy research and are flexible and scalable to different public-outreach scenarios, such as:

Scenario 1: LifeLine
Modular versions of LifeLine centers across the nation could assist the many people who become temporarily homeless when a natural or man-made disaster strikes. We are planning LifeLine centers to help homeless people reintegrate with society. People in need would enter a centralized, integrated renewal “mall” and, like a workflow system, receive health and hygiene attention, clothing and food, an energy-efficient living space, a mailing address, a recreation pass, job training and networking, day care, library access, transportation access, and spiritual counseling. Bringing existing services together in a mall-like center accommodates all the needs of an individual to regain their place in society—innovation through collaboration.

Scenario 2: CompanionReach
There are many lonely and despondent elderly who need attention. Additionally, there are many rescued animals in need of help and love. We are planning an assisted living facility with an integrated pet “library”. Elderly residents will be able to check out a pet, care for it, walk it, keep it, or return it. Additionally, the facility will offer revolutionary technologies that will sustain and improve quality of life.
