Household
Residential design exploring how homes function as spaces for living, collecting, and family life.
Household design encompasses the creation of residential spaces that respond to the needs and lifestyles of those who inhabit them. These projects consider how architecture shapes daily living, storage, and the relationship between inhabitants and their environment.
The community explores diverse approaches to residential design, from coastal houses that serve as archives for collected objects to urban homes that use water features and spatial divisions to define family zones and create contemplative living environments.
