Communal spaces

The project of the Moriyama House in Tokyo designed by Ryue Nishizawa is a new way of private and community living. The house is designed according to the principle of “house-as-city”, which leads to the formation of urbanity on the inside of the building, a very important aim of the architect.

  1. This is a very interesting case study of housing, based on collective strategy. You might want to check out the idea of "Kollektivhus", a Swedish concept that defines multiple possibilities within communally used dwellings. See as well Dick Urban Vestbro's ideas about this.
