Minimization of conflicts and rules
Individualized lockable storage in communal kitchen alleviates many issues:
- Protects residents with food allergies
- Reduces conflict about missing food
- Allows residents to control access to “treats” or favorite foods
- Adds predictability and control to residents’ lives.
One refrigerator intended for a nuclear family will not serve multiple families well. Shared refrigerators lead to conflicts over missing food. Ideally, each family would have a locking apartment sized refrigerator.
Abundant kitchen space reduces conflict.
