Multiple units can be configured together in such a way that residents can take advantage of communal kitchens, bathrooms or offices.<\/p>\n<p>Construction of CUBO should take no more than four hours after the arrival of an installation team. Bamboo is abundant in the Philippine islands, where it thrives even on poor-quality soil and can be harvested annually without leading to soil\u00a0degradation.<\/p>\n<p>Forlales offers CUBO as a low-cost housing option for below-minimum wage earners in the overpopulated metropolis. At an estimated rental cost of just GBP0.20 a day, a CUBO unit could turn a profit within 5.1 years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a huge step forward to helping the people of Manila,\u201d Forlales said in a statement. \u201cThe state of housing in the city is at crisis point, and will undoubtedly get worse with this new influx of workers.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1786\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1786\" style=\"width: 1185px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1786\" src=\"http:\/\/pgawards.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Artists-impression-of-a-bedroom-in-CUBO2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1185\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Artists-impression-of-a-bedroom-in-CUBO2.jpg 1185w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Artists-impression-of-a-bedroom-in-CUBO2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Artists-impression-of-a-bedroom-in-CUBO2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Artists-impression-of-a-bedroom-in-CUBO2-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1185px) 100vw, 1185px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1786\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Artist&#8217;s impression of a bedroom in CUBO<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cCUBO started as nothing more than an idea, conceived while spending time at my grandparent\u2019s house \u2013 it is incredible to think that it now will become a reality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Forlales\u2019 prize money of GBP50,000 will allow him to start work on CUBO next year.
