The Kitchen as the Heart of Student Housing

Annotation

More Than Cooking – A Space for Community. The project explores the potential of shared kitchens in student dormitories as spaces for daily encounters, collaboration, and communal living. Through observations, spatial experiments, and case studies in Umeå, it challenges the perception of the kitchen as a purely functional space and transforms it into a vibrant social hub.

my key experience from erasmus

Studying at Umeå University, the northernmost school of architecture in Sweden, was calm yet enriching. All the teachers were very friendly, positive, and supportive. Umeå offered me a different rhythm of life - stress-free, with space for reflection, creativity, and discovering Scandinavia.
