A design for a communal living complex, shared among small families. I got inspired by nomadic tents and the symbol of a burning fire, which represents being home. The circle in the middle of the complex acts like a hot air balloon, it becomes a domed space, excessible from all living quarters, as long as there is a fire burning in its core. When the structure is abandoned, the caved-in roof will visible from far away, and invite new inhabitants to take care of the space.A design for a communal living complex, shared among small families.
