The German street magazine Hinz&Kunzt and the agency Philipp und Keuntje (PUK)
officially present the City Life Billboard, the first advertising poster
offering shelter to the homeless. Together with Ultra OOH Berlin and Mediaplus,
the company built a trailer for homeless people to use as a mobile shelter
throughout the city. The trick: The roof surface of the trailer is rented out
as advertising space, which refinances the acquisition costs – and at the same
time, it generates money for a fund that finances permanent shelter for the
homeless.
Europe: hundreds of thousands without a safe place to live.
Housing is a fundamental human right. Yet hundreds of thousands on the world's
most prosperous continent lack a home. According to the United Nations Agenda
2030, homelessness is to be ended by 2030. However, concrete measures for this
ambitious plan have not yet been presented in many places.
A converted trailer as a safe haven.
The City Life Billboard works to raise the necessary awareness on this issue.
The interior of the certified emergency shelter is 1.85 metres in height, and
the entire floor is designed as a level sleeping space with a soft and
insulating base. The trailer also features a power connection inside, and
high-quality insulation ensures a constant room temperature, even on cold
nights.
Anyone who wants to support Hinz&Kunzt and the fund for new housing projects
