Max Wallack a 12-year-old young boy heard of WGBH’s Design Squad “Trash to Treasure” design contest, he was ready to give his best shot.
He submitted this amazing “Home Dome”—a homeless shelter made from plastic, wire, and packing peanuts—to a recent “Trash to Treasure” design contest. Based on a Mongolian yurt, it’s warm and includes a bed.

The project both helps divert materials from landfills and gives the homeless a place to sleep.
