House for a Small Family
Context The Family75 · House Cluster37
Problem
In a small family, adults and children both need shared time together and a realm of their own to withdraw into. When the house is not divided to hold both, these two needs keep clashing with each other.
Solution
Divide a small family's house into a shared common area together with separate realms for the adults and for the children, connected to one another through the rooms held in common.
