Humans are probably the most intelligent beings on the planet. That is why we have the best houses on the planet. Animals' planets aren't sanitary or as efficient as ours. Not only that but us humans can make sturdy houses out of cardboard rolls (the cylinder things on inside the layers of toilet paper) and adapt to our environment quickly.
Recently I saw a video about an architect describe how strong cardboard rolls are. He says they are sturdy, waterproof and can be fireproof sometimes too. He uses the cardboard rolls to build emergency shelters, churches and camps. Sometimes people think he is crazy because he is using such a common and random thing to build buildings. But after he shows the people what he has done and they are amazed of what he built. He often wants to help society so he goes to a country that had recently had a large natural disaster and builds camps out of cardboard so they can be easy to take down once everything is repaired.
Another thing that makes us the smartest being on the planet is that we can adapt to any environment as long as we have materials. One place in China the land is scarce so some people just made an under ground village. Then more people started to join in and soon the whole city was probably living 7 meters under the ground. In Africa there is this town that lives on water. People travel around in boats and have shops in boats. Sometimes sellers row house to house selling things that people need. Public space is scarce so they have a floating school that is like a city hall. Finally I will tell you about an abandoned tower. It was a originally supposed to be a commercial building but then the person who had the ideas died and the plan was abandoned. Soon people started moving in and it became a 42 story high apartment building. All you need to do is find so curtains to make a rectangle and customize your house.
Humans have the knowledge and power to build and create things. But to make rare and awesome things you need creativity.
