Dwelling together Dwelling is  staying somewhere in order to build familiar relationships (Heidegger, 1958; Tuan, 1977; Seamon, 1980; Moles, 1992) Dwelling is  concealing its own time and the other’s times Idiorhythm= personal time that puts the others at a bearable distance and allows good relations with them (Barthes, 1976-1977)
Gardening in between The garden  allows for paradox,  it  shelters tensions As a medium, the garden  facilitates the relations  with neighbors Through spatial and behavioral strategies, gardening empowers the residents to  estrange the others as well as to develop gardened relations with them
The times of gardening  Time construction/  Time-topology (Pomian, 1984 & Amphoux, 1988) - Cyclical temporality - Linear continuous temporality - Linear discontinuous temporality - Unchanging temporality
The times of gardening  Familiar and Biological times Closed-at-hand form of leisure activity (Kaplan, 1973) Dwelling is cultivating (Heidegger, 1958), The vocation of Cura (Harrison, 2007) Gardening holds a feeling of continuity without any process of habituation
