Incrementalize It!

Incrementalize It! Poster

Incrementalize It! is a game to highlight the implications of incremental housing. It covers how it works and what are some aspects to keep in mind when making decisions. This includes where to put a starter core, how/where to expand, what materials one should use, etc. This game is not only for the homeowner, but the designer as well. The person expanding their house can benefit just as much as the person deciding on policy and designing projects.

The game intends to promote the familiarly and use of core housing, particularly for developing countries where core housing would be an a vital proactive housing option by governments.
