GRUNDRISSE
MORAL BORDERS COMPETIITON - first prize
HOUSING SOLUTIONS FOR THE IMMATERIAL WORKER An affordable dystopia. For the post-Fordist multitude every qualitative difference between labor time and non-labor time falls short. (P.Virno) GRUNDRISSE is a basin of «immaterial labor», a network of individuals performing on call tasks, adapting their competences for specific projects, assuming their own responsibilities, facing the risks.GRUNDRISSE’s physical expression is a structure composed by different typologies of cells, all made up by one room, where inhabiting and working are completely merged. The houses are conceived to allow the possibility of working in connection to any other activity and in any possible space. GRUNDRISSE is a mean of exploitation as well as of social control. It provides the illusion of preventing precarization, keeping the workers always busy for different companies.
