ONE ROOF





This project envisions a harmonious relationship between workers and the food ecosystem, fostering sustainability. Empowering workers to design and consume from the production system promotes collective ownership, homogenizing and democratizing the food system. The approach emphasizes worker sovereignty, creating a collaborative and inclusive production and consumption environment. The building is divided into four sections: meat, produce, prepared food, and packaged food.
