This is next level upcycling.

An architecture firm in Hawaii has got big plans to create mobile homeless shelters out of old, retired city buses.

Honolulu-based firm Group 70 International is heading up a proposal, along with Jun Yang, the city’s executive director of housing, to convert five decommissioned buses into the travelling homeless shelters.

Ma Ry Kim from Group 70 told Hawaii News: ‘The idea is to convert them into living, sleeping, showering, recreational facilities.’

Supplies for the project will be donated by local organisations and the work will be done using volunteers.
