Men and Women

Opening context: Community of 7000, Identifiable Neighborhood, Life Cycle

Conflict

The world of a town in the 1970’s is split along sexual lines. Suburbs are for women, workplaces for men; kindergartens are for women, professional schools for men; supermarkets are for women, hardware stores for men.

Resolution

Make certain that each piece of the environment — each building, open space, neighborhood, and work community — is made with a blend of both masculine and feminine instincts. Keep this balance in mind for every project at every scale, from kitchen to the steel mill.

Closing context:
Scattered Work, A Room of One’s Own
