Strikes me that a lot of communal living would have this. Even just living with a roommate, she “owns” some of our kitchenware, and I “own” other portions, but we’re both 100% free to use it.
Quotes on “own” because we’d probably work out who-gets-what based on practical considerations if it ever mattered (for example, I would have no use for most of our baking supplies if I moved out, since I only bake socially)
