Isaacs' plan is to build several dome clusters, big and small, to provide families with sleeping areas and a community kitchen. The airy, open dome structure contrasts with the grim failure of many purpose-built Aboriginal housing projects. It's 50 degrees in the shade in places like this. Try to live in one of these boxes with a flat roof and by six in the morning they are unbearable. But money is the major obstacle.
Aboriginal people end up living in a garden shed.
Isaacs is equally disillusioned. Our experience is that it enjoys having control over our lives. During the past three years Yebble has persisted with his plans. Two more Wiljas have been built and another is fabricated ready on site to be put up.
