HOW WE LIVE
The houses were kitchenless because it was categorized as an unsanitary space.
That is because an average person wastes 1 kilo of garbage every day. And studies show that between 10- 20% of your food goes to the garbage, because we do not consume everything we buy. Equivalent to waste 224 pesos per day.

Lees kitchens per residential space.
Less kilos of waste.
