My Sister's House

I feel that My Sister’s House is a successful example of fostering community among young mothers. This happens though the common situations and struggles that these women gave though and will overcome. Within the actual space, I feel that the kitchen is the most central point where everyone in the house can come together and socialize and get to know each other better. Everyone must eat so the kitchen is a natural gathering point.

Although each woman would have her own room to spend her private time with herself or her child, it still gives a places for each woman to have private conversation with another if it was needed. The common ages and situations among the woman are a unifying point that will allow the formation of community.
