Dissect Community: People x People, Design for Relationships

Families, workplaces, schools, hobbies, and communities that used to be somewhat fixed in the past are now beginning to blend into each other and reveal new possibilities.
As technology evolves and society continues to change, the way people relate to each other may change, or it may be the same as it was in the past.
Either way, the relationship between people is an inseparable part of their lives, and if a community is good for each of us, it will directly affect our happiness in life.
We would like to think about the state of communities today and in the future.
