1.99 REAL Housing is a diverse collective of people working together from several different countries to explore

spontaneous design practices, optimize the intelligence of artists, designers, makers and users to effectively design

creative interventions, skill share, and seek a middle ground between top-down and bottom-up systems.

1.99 REAL Housing is a dollar store reference by Igarai residents to the "1.99 houses," that are raw housing stock consisting of a roof, slab, 4 walls on a small lot; a potent

reminder to the living conditions of millions of people around the world; and the urgency of actualizing healthy and desirable

living environments for families and people of all ages.

1.99 REAL Housing is an ongoing design/build project that utilizes social networking and video sharing as participatory

design and collective cultural production strategy.

A profound aha moment when the designers humbly watch the kids spontaneously construct and conduct a play activity with 4

ropes that fully engages them.
