Out of this study came the book, “Life at Home in the 21st Century,” an unflinching look at the often harried state of the modern American family. Fundamental #13.

Reexamining the fountain: in contemporary urban as well as cultural discussions we see a renaissance of the idea of common space, in german either translated as “Allmende” or “Gemeinschaft” depending on a relationship towards (city) space or social structures.
This is related to the dipole of the private vs. the public as the two dominant categories of the 20th century.
