Earl Patrick Forlales is tackling the Philippines’ housing shortage using sustainable materials and a lot of smarts. His company Cubo Modular, which he co-founded with Zahra Halabisaz Zanjani, is the first and only sustainable modular housing company in the country. As head of product design, he conceptualised easily customisable house kits made from bamboo that come complete with electricity and plumbing, making them immediately ready to be lived in.
