“The lens of the project is housing. And housing is the most important stabilizing factor for people individually and for communities. If the housing situations aren’t proper then nothing is proper really. talking about housing experiences gets at how people [and communities] experience time.” - @blackquantumfuturism on @i_d about #communityfutureslab | https://thefifthsense.i-d.co/en_us/article/meet-community-futures-lab/ 📷 @tonjethilesen
