Description: In these times of pandemic, when the house dilated and our universe diminished, we were interested in knowing about our grandmothers and their homes. Would they be petty, bitter, selfish, arrogant, classist, mean, crazy, racist? What were our grandmothers like or who were they? How were their houses, their ways, the customs? Recalling the architects, the places where they lived and the spaces of their houses, made us see how much this reflected so that we would understand the profession we chose. The objects, utensils and furniture inherited from our grandmothers, who today coexist mixed with ours, perhaps forgotten because they are amalgamated, have become visible again, standing out in this publication as relics that deserved a new place. Each grandmother presented us with different dwellings, ways of living and emotions, intertwining us and strengthening our friendship with sublimated complicity.
