Good housing proved to be the savior of the working world in the last pandemic. The term "family" could also be understood much more broadly today: Neighborhoods, co-living, working groups have taken on much of the characteristics of a close-knit, jointly socialized group.
Three presented projects reflect three different rhythms of life of three families between their privacy and the public. Three different ambiences, open and closed spaces, offer a range of uses lived through self-determination.
