Dostoyevski Inputs

When we travel in the story of the brothers karamazov; We see a family that cannot come together despite all partnerships and blood ties. In this mind experiment of Dostoyevsky, we experience that the father character, who cuts off his physical ties with his children as soon as they step into life, and being spatially distant from each other cause him to be unable to connect even with his own child. In this project, in order for the whole community to come together ;
starting from the smallest units, we tend to create meeting and gathering places.
