1. Home: How We Live in Pomerania

A short conversation about what a home is, the different forms it can take, the patterns and styles that accompany it, what it contains, and what surrounds it. We’ll discuss how a home sounds and what it smells like. Who lives in it? We will show examples of various types of homes from different places. As part of the workshop, each participant will create their own home—either following a pattern or using their imagination.
