The world is like a never-ending nesting doll, each layer containing stories, memories, and experiences. As we navigate life, we instinctively create our own containers—spaces to hold our thoughts, emotions, and belongings. These containers come in various forms: tangible, like a toolbox or a vase, or amorphous, like the warmth of a letter from grandma filled with love and care. We inhabit spaces with our presence, shaping them with stories, music, and laughter. Yet, beyond mere containers, this book embarks on a journey. It delves into the intricate formation of communities and examines our perceptions of public space. It seeks to unravel the threads that unite us, exploring the social practices that foster development and exchange of knowledge as the most valuable unit in modern society.
