Agreements

1. own your experience: honor yourself
   1. we must look out for ourselves + ask for what we want or desire. we invite you to continue your important habits / routines, and potentially even invite others to join you
      • a healthy community is consisted of healthy individuals
      • including if/when we need alone/recharge time
   2. agentic being + self-reliance
      • this is a do-ocracy: “if you see something that needs to be done, do it”. in other words, do the things that you would do to take care of the house, as if you were living alone. if there are things you’d want to take the lead on, we invite you to as well
2. mutual care and collaboration
   1. leave every space better than how you found it
   2. we expect people to extend mutual care and compassion, even through conflict, for general guidelines, please see conflict section below
      • treat ourselves and others with kindness, curiosity, openness, courage, compassion - maximally possible
   3. participation with the house
      • proactively propose activities we’d be interested in
        • running workshops, or starting community votes / proposals of group treasury on different activities or events
        • this can also include additional rituals that we want to add, in case we notice something that can be improved on a more frequent basis
3. have fun!

General House Rules

• quiet hours: 10pm-6am
• no illegal substances in the house
• turn off heating / electronic devices in rooms that are not in use

sharing spaces

• remove all personal belongings from public spaces at the end of the day to reduce clutter

• rooms in the evening will be private with the assigned person / people in that room; otherwise, during the day they can be used for common rooms for people who have meetings

  • open doors encouraged - by leaving doors open, this radically increases the amount of common space during the day
  • put away your futon every morning: this helps refresh the tatami mat space in the area you were sleeping in during the night

• general intention + outline for spaces:

  • room photos here: Makerspace Layout
  • all unused rooms can be used for private calls / meetings during the day, but default to first your room

  space intention	floor plan reference
  cafe, chatting environment	1F kitchen + dining
  chill space, movies, coworking	2F workshop + AV room
  work / flex meeting room	1F corner tatami

  • there are also additional cafes, coworking spaces to use if you’d like to explore the city, or hang out. walks in nature, or around the neighborhood with incredible mountain views, is also an option

• buying on behalf of the company

  • project level expenses must be approved by michelle beforehand (estimations ahead of time helpful)

How to contribute to the home

<aside> 💡 prioritize the project you proposed to, but there will also be group chores shared among the residents during the time of stay:

1/ Vacuuming (1-2x a week) + general tidying 2/ Rubbish for the whole week (the rubbish system here means you can only throw certain things on certain days) 3/ Mopping (Once a week) 4/ Weeding the garden

if you are just one person, 1 & 2 are adequate
