Co-Housing
Residential projects that combine private living spaces with shared communal facilities and social infrastructure.
Co-housing integrates individual homes with collectively used areas, creating communities where residents share resources, services, and social spaces. These projects address contemporary housing challenges by combining affordability, sustainability, and social connection through thoughtful spatial design.
The community explores varied co-housing models across scales and contexts: from urban coliving hubs and mixed-use schemes that activate shared courtyards and green spaces, to larger villages organized around communal cores, and adaptive conversions that transform existing buildings into warm, socially-oriented living environments.
