As <a href="http://inhabitat.com/port-au-princes-historic-iron-market-restored-to-full-glory/" target="_hplink">Haiti marches onward towards reconstruction</a>, <a href="http://inhabitat.com/lilypad-floating-cities-in-the-age-of-global-warming/" target="_hplink">Vincent Callebaut</a> continues to pump out amazing concepts for utopian eco villages for Haitians. Inspired by the organic form of coral, Callebaut proposes <a href="http://vincent.callebaut.org/page1-img-coral.html" target="_hplink">Coral Reef</a>, a plug-in matrix for 1,000 Haitian families. Built upon seismic piers off the coast of the mainland, the prefabricated, modular units can be fit into a wave-like matrix as space is needed. Each family would have a plot of land to grow their own food, and their passive home would minimize energy usage, while <a href="http://inhabitat.com/energy/" target="_hplink">renewable energy sources</a> would make the entire project carbon neutral.
