paraSITE proposes the appropriation of exterior ventilation systems on existing architecture to inflate pneumatic shelters that are designed for homeless people. This project involves the production of a series of inflatable prototypes, the distribution of these devices to a group of homeless people, and the subsequent use of these shelters in relation to a building.
