Get involved! - Leonardo Di Chiara

aVOID is a work-in-progress project! It is still looking for forward-thinking supporting partners and supporters which are interested to develop, together with us, an innovative model for urban living.

aVOID project was possible thanks to the help of hundreds of volunteers, technical sponsors, sponsors and politicians which believed in the tiyny house urban revolution.

If your motivation “tows” you in the same direction of aVOID Tiny House, jump on and get involved! Professionals, companies, students, Institutions and simply amateurs are welcome to give a precious contribution to the project in one of the following tasks: construction, communication and promotion.

**CONSTRUCTION**: The small living unit is still under construction: its development is taking place at Bauhaus Campus in Berlin. aVOID still lacks some technical systems which will be developed following natural cycle models to assure self-sufficiency: heating with infrared, grey-water purification, photovoltaic panels and air purification. Furthermore the test-living experiences, conducted by several testers including its designer Leonardo Di Chiara, represent a fundamental feedback which results into necessary running improvements.

I am still looking for companies which wants to test their materials and products into my tiny house! Do you want to accept this challenge? aVOID tiny house is still missing of the following parts:
– recycling and purifying water system;
– shower drainage;
– air mechanical ventilation system;
– composting toilet;
– dimmer adaptors for iGuzzini lights;
– solar panels and energy storage systems;
– everything that I still don’t know but you think it is amazing to have!

**COMMUNICATION**: aVOID is a story-telling tiny house, designed and built to raise awareness among politicians, urban planners, city population and generally all the inhabitants of the future, of a new housing typology. Taking inspiration from mobility, reductionism and sustainability, it aims at finding a solution for independent living in large metropolises. An effective communication of the project is needed to graphically and conceptually present that vision we believe in to the public at large. (ph Paul Stenzel)

Do you want to be part of my project? I am looking for help to:
– improve my website;
– draw a comic about aVOID and the whole project;
– taking pictures from inside or outside;
– making videos or animations;
– everything you can do and I don’t even know where to start.

**PROMOTION**: Entering aVOID, seeing it with your own eyes, also testing the house for one night are the best way to get in contact with the reality of this mobile living system. Open house visits, guided tour, test-living experiences, art-in-residence programme, radio broadcasting, exhibitions, jam sessions, any other kind of happening and event inside the urban environment represent important occasions to promote the “tiny house” philosophy and the concreteness for its future development. aVOID wants to inspire people about more sustainable living habits through architecture.

If you are interested to become an aVOID tiny house Ambassador, just let me know! Let’s plan events, conferences, workshop and happenings together. To promote my project I would need so tool. Maybe you can help me to find them:
– a car to move my tiny house during the tinyTour (see here: )
– a GO-Pro to show everyone my experience during the transport;
– a 360° camera to make a guided tour for the public on the opposite side of the world;
– etc.
