In a socially divisive society, the reinterpretation of the usual functions of the house works to offer distinctive living separating the spaces to their own clusters in a way that helps the user focus on specific tasks and views. The concept is meant to divide the traditional living spaces where all functions are associated in one volumetric shape. Intended as an exercise of utopian future house, or present rental home, re(retreat) house has to maintain the simple aspects of every space. The clusters work together but separately, the libray for reading, the living room-for social interraction, the dormitory-for rest, the kitchen&dining-for eating etc. All spaces are connected by lifts and platforms that offer constant views and sightseeing.
