To have a car (private) in Japan it is mandatory to have a parking (private). The measure seems controversial, as the regulation (the securities systems here) allows the occupation of spaces where the car deposit is public. That is, the problem is conceived as a responsibility of advertising recognizing that the presence of the car is part of the immobile street. The car needs a large territorial space, immobile and moving, and we consider it a public service. We have assumed to be that way and we have become accustomed to it until we have a right. The Japanese measure can be a social leap (only the one with money will have a car), but at the same time it will make possible other situations: incorporating carpooling as a transport model and socialising the need for a more elaborate transport system.
The custom, the parking we keep under our bed, in the basement of the house. I mean, the house has to be a basement, as usual. The public housing administration of the Balearic Islands has calculated the cost of building the basement of the car parks, which accounts for 40% of the total cost of construction. The commitment of this administration has been to allocate the money from the parking lots in the basement to improve the quality of the house. It is somehow understood that the quality of housing is a basic right and that the private vehicle is not.
There is an award-winning series, The Architect, which focuses its plot on the debate on the cities of the future in the parking lots of the basement. The series represents without use the huge parking spaces we have built, adapting the use of the dwelling. Close to the fiction and aware of the conflict of the great space of cars, there are architects who design house parkings one day to make habitable, bringing the floor of the parkings to the semi-basement, so that the real houses will improve the delirium of fiction.

You're in the bar, in the bar, asking. At the counter, other people too. It will soon take your turn, but the servant has not asked you what you want, he has saved you and he has taken care of the man who has come behind you. You have a stupid face and you want to draw the... [+]
I'd like to write to this thing that I'm inside. Almost five years have passed since the pandemic, and those of us who were young at the time, although we are still young, have begun to orbit in other spaces. Housing, the project of life, maternity, work, health... the agendas of... [+]
