The One-Eyed Giant (Prologue)
References Cyclone Idai's impact on Mozambique three years prior, highlighting how cyclones cause human and financial damage annually.
Prone to Disaster
Disaster survivors lost homes, while traditional financing systems fail to meet building demand, causing home loan costs to spike. Most people cannot afford new houses.
The Vicious Cycle
Financial constraints force unsustainable construction using cheap materials. Homes collapse in subsequent cyclones, trapping people in recurring disaster cycles.
"The need for affordable sustainable housing was never more urgent."
The Constructor / Tree of Life
Introduces Richard, founder of Casa Real, who developed an innovative affordable housing concept despite traditional financing obstacles.
The Constructor's Plan
Richard aims for environmentally sound houses that create jobs, building self-sustainable communities.
