Just kicking around some of the ideas from the last meeting, feel free to add/change...
Cardboard Containers:
Using the packaging from most products to create structures, every packaged item would include a number of "pop-out" parts that could be used by individuals to construct shelter. This uses the currently exploding consumer market for our own benefit.
Module Housing:
This would be a set design on a standard lot, that could be built/rebuilt due to it's lego like construction methods.
Fully Robotic:
This would be a hyper-designed building that anticipated and updated itself based on the needs of the occupant.
Hybrid:
Mix of highly skilled labor design (i.e. pre-fabricated complicated parts) and low labor(simple modules/construction methods) to get the best of both worlds. This would allow the building some flexibility as far as complex designs but also fit with our requirements of occupant built or updated.

Metonymized Precedents

I suppose these can be assumed to be metonymized objects as they are not in any sort of stable state and are in an act of transition. It's seems like if a piece of architecture is to be in a constant state of rupture that it would need to wobble or flex violently, but perhaps I'm missing the point..more here.
