How should we dwell on planet earth? If a computer can be made for $100 (think how absurd this would have sounded 20 years ago) - then why not a building? It is time to drag architecture kicking and screaming into being a super inexpensive enabling tool. A device that is in-tune with our fragile planet! The s...

CLICK-RAFT: October 2008
http://click-raft.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Friday, 31 October 2008. A magic morning of winter sun after so much rain and wind. The plan for the weekend is to finish the roof, cut the final click-leaves and assemble the last roof panels. Next will be the back wall panels, and then the louvres need to be re-glued with silicone. Posted by chris moller. Links to this post. Monday, 6 October 2008. Rain, rain, rain.

CLICK-RAFT: May 2009
http://click-raft.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, 31 May 2009. Prototype 02 A - pavilion. Prototype 02 A: explorations into next step developments on the click-raft are slowly starting to emerge. I have been exploring the design of a new prototype click-raft together with jaap dankerd. The CLICK-LEAF Pavilion is an inexpensive, personal fabrication. Architecture – inspired by nature of leaf design – a playful accessible open system has been invented (big lego for big kids). The system’s flexibility offers many alternative open ended con-fi...

CLICK-RAFT: September 2008
http://click-raft.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, 28 September 2008. The relationship between the plywood and polycarbonate continues to grow on me, there is something rather beautiful about this synergy of different materials. Posted by chris moller. Links to this post. Saturday, 27 September 2008. OPEN-SOURCE INVITATION / LEGO MINDSTORMS. For example, what i didn't mention until now regarding the concept is that it is much more than simply based on standard CNC panel flat pack self-assembly potentials that are interesting in the click-raft.

CLICK-RAFT: August 2009
http://click-raft.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, 22 August 2009. Wellington Museum Talk - 23 August. The Wellington Museum of City and Sea. Have very generously asked me to give a talk on the Click-Raft - 23 August, at 5.00pm for those interested. While it seems that the worst of this tough recession is largely over, the challenges of global warming are not. Both are having a huge impact on how we live on this fragile planet, which raises the urgent need for a different approach towards sustainable shelter (not just housing). The man who inde...

CLICK-RAFT: April 2008
http://click-raft.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, 12 April 2008. The early ideas for the click-raft concept came out of several questions I have been thinking about for a long time. 8226; How to enable myself and others to unlock the huge potential of do it yourself architecture? 8226; How to accelerate the feedback loops in architectural experimentation. 8226; How to explore completely new domains of architecture such as the rooftops or roof-topes (upper level ecologies). 8226; How to shift from dependent buildings to autonomous buildings.
