Storage Space

This proposition is meant to invoke a critical question: Do we truly find comfort in the myriad of debts endured towards owning our own home or can we find comfort in collective living? Through scale and accumulation of private property, our focus in relationship to the home, across all economic backgrounds, becomes about obtaining wealth to maintain a lifestyle and purchase more things which get lost in the deep storage spaces of large single family homes, rather than a place for living with family, neighbors and self. The proposal preserves the minimum dwelling unit for privacy, self-reflection, and individual thought, while extracting several typically contained experiences of the individual home and redistributing them for collective use throughout the urban environment.
