This weather proof fabric is attached to strong bendable, compressed plastic which can open to create vent holes and exits and seal to keep warm.  It's a very strong, sturdy structure that can fold up, collect rainwater and charge a battery with solar farbric.

It was developed by Abeer Seikaly, with the Weaving a Home project and was intended for refugees.  It has popular appeal as well.

The preformed tube members are woven into cloth and can be bent

 

 

I highly suggest visiting their website to peruse the technical schematics.

 

And you can shower in it
