Who can afford to live in the city? Who has the right to make and re-make its spaces? How is the urban commons divided and shared?
Proposed as an alternative to both the virtually unattainable and outmoded ideal of individual homeownership, as well as the increasingly unaffordable and precarious condition of rental tenancy, House S3 constitutes a form of collective habitation that supports both financial security and communal sociability. Grounded in a culture of sharing, House S3 cultivates its multiple dimensions: sharing space, sharing time, sharing resources, sharing knowledge. It provides its residents with both stability and privacy, as well as with flexibility and sociability. It catalyzes an affordable form of urban living with access to communal amenities through fostering a climate of conviviality in which different lifestyles coexist and form symbiotic relationships. House S3 is a social platform where the stories of everyday life are shared.
