Cooking device for refugee camps
One problem when there is a disaster, or there is a war going on, is that when thousands of people come together in a refugee camp, thousands of people also want to cook and eat. Today when they cook, they usually make a fireplace existing of some bricks and an open fire. This becomes a problem because the efficiency is rather poor, and a lot of trees has to be cut down. This could be a big problem for the nature to repair. Another problem due to this is that in most cases it’s the women getting the wood, and this result in many cases of rape and other abuses.
One solution to this is making the fireplaces more efficient, and that’s the way we approached this problem.
The project has been running for quite some time now and we produced a few concepts of which in the end we combined two and came up with the final solution. The Cone!
