Fostering Community: My Sister's House
My Sister's House, completed by Interior Architecture students, will serve as a home and place of refuge for young mothers. In an instance such as this, the idea of community is very important. Community will make the difference between this place being just somewhere to stay and it being a home, where laughter, tears, and advice is shared.
The structure provides many instances in which interactions among inhabitants can happen. The greatest instance of this is the community kitchen, which each person will use. It is large and rather spacious, meaning there will be enough room for a few people at the same time. Kitchens have long been places of community within homes and other dwellings. People come together over food perhaps more than anything else.
