Co-living spaces merge individual units with extensive shared facilities, creating communities within residential buildings. These projects address changing housing needs by prioritizing social interaction, sustainability, and efficient use of space.

The community explores diverse co-living models including student housing, senior living communities, work-live arrangements, and mixed-use developments. Projects range from adaptive reuse schemes in urban centers to purpose-built villages organized around central courtyards and green spaces.

Nowadays, technology and modernism have caused the endless urban sprawl. Workers have to spend 1/8 of their day to commute, which has caused people's lack of belonging to their hometown. By combining living ,working and recreation within a reachable living sphere, we provide an opportunity for young immigrants and local neighbors to live together.

dwell one

In this design, we created two responses for the lack of people in single dwellers' life: one is to encourage interaction with the outside community. The other is to interact with similar people in the same building with a digital neighborhood. So besides their interior world, dwellers will have two societies to interact with. Society to the power of two!
