We present the latest images and video of the prototype of home space for collective dispute with the nickname PARLIAMENT HOME SWEET sent by Andrés Jaque, and presented at the Gwangju Biennale, invited by Ai Weiwei and Seung H. Sang, 4th Gwangju Design for the Biennale, Republic of Korea, between September 2 and October 23. The new proposal by Andrés Jaque and his team, still brilliantly line discussion and research on shared housing posed unfamiliar to the installation "Fray Foam Home" recently presented at the last Venice Biennale, curated by Kazuyo Sejima and published also! in METALOCUS 027.

Domesticity in Seoul is no longer something that happens in a single place: the house. But something that is constructed by connecting different spaces spread out within the city. Home is not spatially fixed, unitary and consistent; but discontinuous, fragmented and constantly changing.
서울의 집은 더 이상 단일장소가 아니다 : 집. 도시안에 다른공간들을 연결함으로써 조성할 수 있는 것.
집은 공간적으로 고정되거나 일원화 그리고 변함없는 것이 아니라 해체될수도 있으며 여러 곳에 위치할 수 있으며 지속적으로 변화가 가능하다.
Seoul is the strategy to segregate social realities to make daily life un-political. But every depoliticing strategy gets its response. A number of urban home fragments act as parliamentary spaces where diversity meets and is confronted. These are the fragments the project takes into account and prototypes.
Discussion can happen in a warm space based on affection. This is our proposal: To bring politics and conflict into ordinary life.
토론은 애정을 바탕으로 따듯한 공간에서 이루어질 수 있다. 이것이 우리가 바라는 점이다. 정치적인 것들과 혼란을 우리의 일상생활에 가지고오는 것 말이다.
