Living the fence is a proposal by Homu designed in 2011. It is located in Muhura Rwanda in a countryside setting. Its scale is medium. Key material is brick. The concept of open room is explored.

The project is located in Muhura on the hill’s ridge line following the church, the school and the hospital. The new centrality should be able to establish a new site for the idea of community. The program conceives essential services as stationery, pharmacy, bread oven, polyvalent room, with the special cathartic power of a relational space where exchange of experiences is allowed and advocated. For the fact of being in a vast territory of an endless succession of green hills, it is important to define a space, to circumscribe a place that brings back a human scale and that people can grab, reaching a sense of domesticity and everyday life.
