Description

Statistics show that the world population has been growing for many years. This phenomenon is particularly noticeable in large cities. In recent decades, housing has responded to the demand for living space by increasingly downsizing. This leads to the resident enclosing himself in his den and neglecting the social phenomenon. This is why we speak of multi-household housing structures that provide common areas to promote dialogue, mutual help and cooperation. These are called co-housing or co-living. The project is based precisely on the communal kitchen. Theienigen objects are re-evaluated and identified for a new way of perceiving the kitchen. Based on this new theme, the utensils should convey a sense of unity, sharing and inclusion.
