Elements of Cohousing
Cohousing communities provide individual residences complete with familiar amenities, including fully-equipped kitchens. The architectural layout of our homes is crafted to offer a view towards the community, while ensuring discreet private spaces remain unobservable.
While fostering easy and natural connection with the community, such interaction is optional and intermittent, acknowledging the significance of privacy.
Cohousing common houses serve as focal points, featuring shared amenities like kitchens, dining areas, laundry, guest rooms and recreational spaces, fostering shared interests and activities. These spaces facilitate regular interaction among residents, promoting a sense of unity.
The design emphasizes both community engagement and the importance of private spaces to create a harmonious and fulfilling living environment.
Cohousing promotes sustainability through intentional design, incorporating eco-friendly features like shared open spaces, smaller dwellings, and construction in harmony with natural surroundings. Shared resources reduce individual carbon footprints, while collaborative planning emphasizes environmental consciousness.
This commitment to sustainability enhances the overall resilience and ecological harmony of cohousing communities.
Cohousing cultivates connected relationships by design, encouraging regular interaction through shared spaces like common houses, kitchens, and recreation areas.
Active resident participation in planning fosters a strong sense of community, promoting mutual support, shared experiences, and a deeper social fabric that enriches the overall quality of relationships within the cohousing setting.
Cohousing encourages active resident participation by involving them in the planning, design, and management of their community.
This intentional engagement fosters a sense of ownership, shared responsibility, and democratic decision-making, creating a vibrant and collaborative living environment where residents play a pivotal role in shaping their collective future.
Cohousing communities thrive on shared values that create a cohesive and supportive environment. Residents collaboratively establish principles such as environmental sustainability, communal responsibility, and collective decision-making.
These shared values foster a strong sense of unity, trust, and a shared commitment to creating a purposeful and harmonious living experience.
