#stilt houses

[dream-world-universe]

Stilt Houses, Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea: Stilt houses, or pile dwellings as they are sometimes called, used to be very common in PNG’s capital Port Moresby. Buildings are typically constructed using locally sourced materials such as bamboo, wood, palm leaves, and sago palm .. Port Moresby also referred to as Pom City or simply Moresby, is the capital and largest city of Papua New Guinea. Wikipedia

Stilt Houses, Assam, India: Houses in Assam are built on stilts to prevent water from entering the houses during floods. As Assam is a region that receives heavy rainfall for the majority of the year, there are often chances of floods. As a preventive measure against flooding, houses in Assam are built on raised platforms or stilts

Shit, yall. My heart aches for everyone who has been hit by Helene.

When I was 7, and then again when I was 11, central Texas dealt with two of the worst flash flooding incidents in living memory. (The first was designated a '100 year' flood, the second, 4 years later, a '4 hundred year' flood) with the terrain of the hill country being what it is, we were stuck on our street for several days each time, penned in by low water crossings and a swollen Guadalupe River even after the rain had stopped. Whole neighborhoods in my town were washed away, rebuilt, and washed away again 4 years later. That shit sticks with you. Even if you rebuild, it's never quite the same.

These towns in the Carolinas and Tennessee will never be the same. Some areas will be abandoned. Places that might rebuild will face much higher flood insurance on top of just starting back at zero. The poor infrastructure will double up with the poverty and the grief. People who have evacuated may not come back. There may not be enough to return to. Those who do come back have a long, long fight ahead of them.

This isn't a call to action, not until we know what the needs will be specifically, but it is a call to empathy. To remember that the people in the south do not deserve to suffer through natural disasters. That it's not karma. It's not divine justice. It's not a joke.

Days 10, 26, 29 of 30 for @clovercrafted 's Summer Fun Event: By the Sea, Bamboo, Port

There's an old fisherman who lives in this cabin by the sea. He built it high on stilts to stay safe from the changing tides and waves, but when the water's calm, he goes out on his bamboo raft to enjoy the cool, salty air.

For this build, I really wanted to incorporate the quirks of the generated terrain - I built a bridge over a river, used bamboo stalks as supports, and put a hut in a nearby jungle tree, among other things. I think it brings a kind of life and belonging to the build.
