100 square feet

Filed in Notes on May 17th 06 .

Imagine living in a flat that was 100 square feet in size. Communal toilets and showers I suppose, but what about the cooking? They seem to have flasks but no stoves so perhaps there is a communal kitchen. No sign of ‘a room of one’s own’ here.

Michael Wolf is showing us part of the living arrangements, but not the whole support system: do the people keep their doors open and live communally by floor, so the corridor becomes a street, or do they keep the doors closed most of the time? We only have one word of the pattern language that must describe the flats.
