Communal Villa: Production and Reproduction in Artists’ Housing Published by Spector Books/Haus der Kulturen der Welt.

How can the housing question be appropriately reformulated in an age in which the work / life distinction is becoming increasingly blurred? The Realism Working Group and the architecture firm Dogma — in consultation with the Kulturwerk des BBK Berlin — are developing new living and working spaces for artists that challenge traditional designs and their underlying economic frameworks.
The Haus der Kulturen der Welt (Berlin) project Wohnungsfrage investigates the fraught relationship between architecture, housing, and social reality in an exhibition of experimental housing models, an international academy, and a publication series that examines various options for self-determined, social and affordable housing. This publication series presents key historical works accompanied by new commentaries, contemporary case studies from around the world, and publications by activists concerned with urban policy issues, architects, and artists.
