IKEA’s research lab Space10 has teamed up with architecture studio EFFEKT on The Urban Village Project, a vision for subscription-based housing that brings together people of different generations and encourages them to share facilities.
Both based in Copenhagen, Space10 and EFFEKT have developed a number of policies to move towards more communal living, or co-living.
These include shared daycare and transport, local water harvesting, communal dining and urban farming initiatives.
